Building animation and story telling capabilities

Business teams and analysts are commonly responsible for sharing or "walking through" business results, trends, and the findings from their analyses with other stakeholders such as senior management. To most effectively support the message delivery process in these scenarios, Power BI provides built-in animation capabilities for the standard scatter chart and ArcGIS map visualization types. Additionally, custom visuals such as the pulse chart further aid the storytelling process by embedding user-defined annotations into the visual and providing full playback control over the animation.
