Thanks for all the feedback! Currently, Power BI does not have a security
feature for pages; however, using conditional page navigation and RLS, you can
create a custom navigation experience that shows different page options for
different roles.

Here's an example of this custom navigation experience: 
 

You can start by hiding all pages on your report except the landing page. Then
you will create a column that contains the exact names of the pages in report.
Here's an example: 


Using Power BI's row-level security feature, you can define the security roles
and rules for this column, and then you can add the column to a single-select
slicer.
The slicer will only show values in the column based on the security roles and
rules that you've applied to this column.


Next, you can create a page navigation button and click the fx button to
conditionally format the destination based on the column: 

 
Now the button can navigate the user to the selected page:

Option to use either light or dark interface.

New Desktop app update installed an almost white user interface. There is zero
contrast which is not good for the eyes. I see where some people have requested
a light interface so incorporate an option to select either light or dark theme
like in the Office apps.

Measure Management & DAX Editor

Anyone who uses PowerBI long enough has had a PBIX with 50-60 measures and it
has become time consuming and tedious to mantain. In Excel you can do a quick
find/replace to edit several formulas - in PowerBI you need to select each one
individually. An "excel-like" interface for editing measures w...

We've been leaning on the community tools like Tabular Editor, DAX Studio, BISM
Normalizer, to provide high-end DAX editing capabilities. We don't have any
short-term plans to add more DAX management tools to the product, but we'll be
looking at ways to better integrate those tools.

Add Folders To Organize Reports On PowerBI.com

RIght now, on powerbi.com, there is no ability to organize reports, dashboards,
etc into folders. If you have a lot of content or users, this gets messy
quickly. Please add the ability to organize into folders (and secure those
folders separately)

Default Selected Slicer or Tile-By Value Configuration

Allow a user to set the default value for a slicer or tile-by value on a
page/dashboard, so that when the Power View page is opened for the first time,
the default value is selected. eg. If the page has a slicer for Year or Month,
allow the user to configure the most recent Year or Month to be se...

Thanks for everyone's votes and comments. This is a feature on our backlog;
however we cannot share a timeline at the moment.

It looks like many of the requests will be addressed by the new 'Sticky filters'
capability. Now when you log out of Power BI and come back to a report, the same
items will be selected as when you left. For those who're looking to have a
'last month' selection, the relative date slicer might help. Those with comments
about currencies where having multiple selected makes the report meaningless -
the report will load with whatever selection the author saved, so if you save it
with one currency selected your users will see that by default. If there are
scenarios that these features don't address, please let us know in your comments
- if you are really specific it'll help us build the feature to work just the
way you want! Thanks again!

This month we added the ability to format text fields based off a numeric field:
https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-may-2018-feature-summary/#conditionalFormatting
We also are planning on adding a feature that will let you format your text
based on comparisons. I'll update this idea based on our progress on that
feature.

field but it is enabled for user input. This input field can be used in new

Thanks for the feedback! This is something we'd like to get to in the future but
don't have any plans for at the moment. We suggest checking out the visual Text
