I've discovered that full-screen mode is unavailable in Power BI. Why is that?

    Hi @Raymond Tang

    Just to clarify, we're not Microsoft Support, this is a user-to-user support forum. We don't have access to Microsoft's internal systems and cannot intervene directly in product functionality. What we can do is share observations, testing results, and publicly available information that may help.

    Based on Change the display of a report page, the guidance applies to Power BI Service and explicitly does not apply to Power BI Desktop, as indicated in the article's Applies to section.

    While there is no official documentation explicitly stating that the Full screen feature was removed from Power BI Desktop, the current documentation only describes this functionality for the Power BI Service. This also aligns with discussions in the Microsoft Fabric Community, where users and community members have reported that recent versions of Power BI Desktop do not include a built-in Full screen mode.

    For future Power BI questions, I recommend posting in the Power BI forums - Microsoft Fabric Community. That space is dedicated to Power BI topics and will give you access to more targeted expertise. This forum does not currently have a dedicated tag for Power BI, so posting in the Fabric Community will ensure your question reaches the right audience. 

    Thank you for your understanding.
