Hi this comment is not for this video let me explain; I want to use the same mouse for both my phone and PC without needing to switch or connect the mouse separately to each device. Currently, I watch tutorial videos on my phone while practicing on my PC, but I find it inconvenient to constantly reach out to pause or play the videos. I don't want to use my phone as a second monitor because it lags. Is there a way I can move the mouse from my PC to my phone as if they were two connected monitors, without actually using the phone as a second monitor? (I need help)

[@wissam8964]

man i love your content and everything but u look like scary crazy guy

[@itexperience]

With Kevins tutorials, everything becomes a piece of a cookie. One great benefit, in favor of Kevins videos above competitors, is the efficiency. No smalltalk but only relevant information in a very short amount of time.

[@davidadams421]

Wow! That was excellent. Definitely pleased to see that 'subscriptions' feature. The number of times I've been asked to send regular updates of a report that is based on live data is unbelievable. I just want to shout, "It's live data, view anytime you want!" but this often falls on deaf ears. Outstanding video. I love the way you focus on _useful_ features, rather just all features.

[@thoughtfuldog5424]

This is great, thanks Kevin. A video on sentiment analysis and keyword extraction within PowerBI would be superb…

[@fionaosullivan115]

I cannot wait to go to work tomorrow and set up Power Bi subscription to the person who wants a compiled report every MONTH that she could get herself. I know it was possible but was thinking I needed to involve Power Automate. I am literally dancing a jig!!!Thank you Kevin

[@jilldavidson240]

You make this look so easy. Now comes the practice. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 🎉

[@user-gz6ud1lr1k]

Thanks Kevin for a great list of tips, I would be interested to know the version of this BI since I don’t see the AI options under insert ribbon

[@gollusingh007]

These tips are really helpful. But, along with these you can also include how to do the custom sorting especially on the date related columns when we want the data to be sorted in the chronological order rather than in the alphabetical order.

[@jasminjavia6445]

Thank you Kevin for wonderful tips and details.

[@sylbealvaguez]

Is there a way for the power BI to calculate the headcount of a specific active Job title per month on a specific year just base on the latest census report? I am just learning to use BI but I think this is not an easy one. I guess I will have to use those historic census reports month by month to figure out the head count. If you can give me a hand I would love your help. Thank you for your tutorials, they are great and straight to the point.

[@user-yo2ox1qn4w]

I sure didn't expect the visual from the company i work for to show up when you clicked "more visuals"

[@joeyhernandez7628]

Hey Kevin! Awesome content! One question for anyone who might know, how can we add a YoY/MoM/WoW table that tells you previous data vs. current data and their diff%?

[@pariayousefi5099]

PERFECT. I have a question: i wrote a macro in excel to produce a report in Word, containing both text and charts(400 pages for diffrent countries) which i need to change certain data for eachone . how i can do the same thing in power bi? this is possible??

[@crystalcarpenter8310]

Can you teach us ro do a condtional formating so from the goal if the day is under it turns red, if it's over it turns green, that continues each day for the month.

[@AnshulMarele-gbaa]

[@pranaygharde5079]

[@linkinparkroxx]

My Power BI Desktop does not offer the same options - Q&A is nowhere to be seen and not to be found on the "more visuals" platform or whatever it is called in english. Which version of Power BI are you running?

[@user-ch6gz8uj4p]

Very well, thx

[@philipfranzen5096]

In tips number 10. Is it possible to modify the dataset and keep the Power BI template in the Powerpoint? What tips do you have to efficiently edit the datasets to automatically update your pre-saved Power BI tools in for example a website?

[@MelodyZeng-iz6wp]

Will it be visible for everyone if I publish it to "my workspace"? I'm worried about data security.

[@dayanabadrisya132]

[@user-fy6ee9vr8q]

Hi everyone! My Power BI does not have an option to show the anomalies under the visualization tab and I'm not sure why, does anyone know where that might be? I see the trend line, but the last option in the table is percentile line. Thank you!

You don’t tell that when you try to get a new visuals it ask for your email address, and when you try to create an account it says 'ur email looks like a personal email address, enter your work address', and all these functions are not available if you just want to learn power bi....

[@CZPRK2]

It's not TIps and Tricks. just a basic guide for beginners
