Toad for Oracle - changing formatting on DBMS Output window - toad

On the DBMS Output window for Toad v11, how can you change the DBMS Output font and color? I've looked all over in the options but I'm unable to find where it's possible it change this. It's way too small by default.

Options -> Oracle -> General. About halfway down is a box titled "DBMS Output" with a button inside titled "Font". Click this and it will open a new dialog box allowing you to modify the font type, size, color, etc.

For Toad 13.x, it is View > Toad Options > Data Grids > Visual. In the Styles section, you can drill into Edit to change the font and size.

please select View Menu tab from the taskbar >> Toad option >> Oracle Dropdown >> General>> DBMS output click the button Font and you can change from there.

For Toad 13, the DMBS Output settings are at View > Toad Options > Oracle > General.

Using Power BI conditional formatting

Problem: When attempting to use conditional formatting on a card, table, etc. I can right click off the measure or column data involved to select conditional formatting. The process starts and the conditional formatting window starts up, but never completes and appears as a “Pop Up” to select conditions. It does show up as a second Power BI window.
Context: I using a Mac w/ 16GB ram and running windows 10 via the latest version of Parallels. I am running the latest Power BI Version. Models are built from SQL Imports. I have a Pro Edition of Power BI. I have looked through the Options section of Power BI and applied everything that could be removing involved in this situation. I am an analyst not a code writer.
Questions:
Is this a Power BI or Windows issue?
Are there any know resolutions to this type of problem?
What do I need to confirm or check on in Power BI
If it helps, here's what I see on Windows. I have selected a table visual. In the Visualizations pane, I right click a field. I select Conditional formatting > Icons. I get a pop up window that lets me configure the conditional formatting. It sounds to me like this is working for you just fine.
The popup window is large and cannot be resized. The OK button is at the bottom of the window, and if your monitor is too small, you won't be able to see it. I'm guessing this is the issue you are running into.
If you don't see the OK button on the bottom of the popup window, the simple solution is to use a bigger monitor or try dragging the window higher so you see the bottom buttons. If this isn't an option, one workaround could be "clicking" OK through key commands.
Here are the key commands that would allow you to "click" OK:
Click on the top most control to select it. In my popup window, it is the Format by dropdown.
Press shift-Tab. This selects the X button in the upper right corner of the popup window.
Press shift-Tab again. This selects the Cancel button on the form.
Press shift-Tab one more time. This should select the OK button.
Press enter. This should select OK and complete your changes.

Hover Over Text in PowerBI

Wondering if there's a way to make a text bubble show up when the user hovers over a metric in a Power BI report.
I have tried using alt text, but that does not show up anywhere.
I had the same problem just now, and the documentation page Create tooltips based on report pages in Power BI Desktop describes how to do this. Probably this functionality was not around in March 2018 (when the accepted answer was posted).
Steps
In summary the steps are as follows (assuming you already have a visualization):
Create a new page, name it Tooltip 1
On the Tooltip 1 page, go to Format → Page Information and switch on the Tooltip toggle
Go to Canvas settings and set the Type to Tooltip.
Create a text box via Home → Text box, fill it with the text you want to show when one hovers over your visualization.
Select your visualization
Click on Format → Tooltip
Set Type to Report page
Set Page to Tooltip 1
Now when you hover over the visualization, the text box from step 4 will be shown.
Additions
You can mark the page Tooltip 1 as hidden, such that it does not show up as a tab on your report.
You can also customize the tooltip size by setting the Page size of the tooltip page to Custom with suitable width and height values.
As described in the link, instead of text you can also create a whole visualization.
Currently, I don't think this is possible natively.
There are some ideas related to this that you can vote for:
Custom Alt Text (tooltip) On Hover Over Any Visual
Tooltip for Matrix visual (and others)
Tooltips for Tables
There is also a Dynamic Tooltip custom visual that you might be close enough to what you are looking for.
You can use a transparent shape as an overlay on the text you want the hover over test to appear on
Turn Action On
Type Page Navigation
Destination None
Tooltip - Add the test you want to display on the hover

Power BI, collapsible text

Is there a way to include a collapsible text in a Power BI report?
The purpose would be to add text into the report (essentially explanations for the user on the data and the methodology), but without the text being allways present and taking real state. Right now I elaborate separate documentation on the reports but it could be more effective to be able to have the text appear right when the user needs documentation in the report.
I would add the text as either a Multi-Row Card, Table or Long Text Viewer (Custom Visual).
Then I would reduce the frame size of that object to show just the first line of text. Users can click the Focus Mode button to expand the visual to a full screen view.
That text might event say "Click the Focus Mode button (top right) to expand ...".

If the ssrs report layout will support it you can set the visibility of a column based on an expression based on the added parameter.
Steps:
