Hi,
I'm working on a custom visual and have a few problems. Just to be upfront I have limited JS skills, but am experienced with MSFT BI / SQL etc. I've been spending some time trying to get things to work, but am struggling!
My visual is based on an existing custom visual and it works perfectly when using the web devTools.. The format panel of the visual is working / displaying correctly, and a key feature of opening external URL's in either the same tab or a new tab works perfectly.
However my problems are:
1. When I export the visual from the web tools to a .pbiviz and then import it into PowerBI.com report, the thumbnail image doesn't load, the format panel shows the field id's not the display names, some field names are blank where I use the createDisplayNameGetter and I can't navigate to the URL when the visual is clicked.
2. Wen I set the URL to open in a new window, it only happens when I right click the visual and open in a new tab or press ctrl+ click. When I set it to open in the same tab, the visual goes blank (in Chrome). I get varying results using different browsers.
3. The rest of the visual works fine.
My pbiviz & sample data is located here:
Why is this not working properly in the Power BI service when importing as a pbiviz? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Tony
