Help me see the exact date a change was made

By Igor Goldobin in Sharepoint Online (Office365) 0 Comment

Office 365 dates seem to be too simple. Audit data should be crystal clear (as detailed as possible).

I find audit history on Office365 to be lacking E.g. sswcom.sharepoint.com

It certainly is less useful than Sharepoint 2016 as dates were shown better.

I searched for a record on the 2 lists and here is what I see:

Office 365
Eg. sswcom.sharepoint.com show me last activity as Friday at 2:15 PM
SharePoint 2016
Eg. intranet.ssw.com.au show me last activity as Created at 9/03/2018 5:06 PM

I find it less useful as it doesn’t tell me the date it was created on. I would prefer to have something like “2 days ago at 2:15 PM (Friday 9/03/2018)”

PS: This is very simple to do with Moment.js

Help me remember what to do with an email

By Adam Cogan in Outlook, Outlook for iOS and Android 0 Comment

I’m on a long flight right now traveling from the USA to Australia doing emails.  It would be great to have a feature that made you need to use Microsoft’s iOS app over the build it Apple mail app. I have one that would make me always use it!

I’m forgetful so when I get an email and think “I’ll call them back” or “I’ll add the to the VSTS backlog later” or “Speak to my girls at home” etc
I find I too often forget.

I’d love tags “To call”… “Add to backlog”… “My girls” etc.

Any +1’s on this? Or do you have a better system than your memory?

Let me re-open my last bunch of tabs

By Adam Cogan in Edge 0 Comment

This missing feature for me is a show-stopper that keeps me on Chrome. There are 2 scenarios that I need to be supported. The first is a blue screen where I want Edge to pick up where I left off. The second is when I accidentally hit the Close button (top right) and go ‘ooops’.

For example, I had 20 tabs opened on Edge – normally Edge is good about keeping my last tabs when I reboot. Yesterday I had an unexpected restart on my Surfacebook and after the PC restarted – all my tabs were all gone. I have no idea why.

Is there any way to reopen my last closed tabs?

History doesn’t help.

Summary: I won’t use Edge as my main browser until I get Control + Shift + T that re-opens my last bunch of tabs.

FYI – This command in Chrome works as described  E.g. It will open my last 10 tabs:

Make Power BI published reports print properly

By Ulysses MacLaren in Power BI 0 Comment

If trying to print a report from the web published view (i.e. https://app.powerbi.com/view…….etc.) , it zooms in on the middle right of the report, instead of printing the full page.

Figure: Bad Example – Print view of a Power BI report from the web published view zooms in to the middle of the report

Figure: Good Example – If you’re properly logged into the Power BI portal, the report prints fine

This needs to be fixed.
