    Hi,

    Thank you for your feedback.

    When I saw your formatting pane of the area chart of your Power-BI-Picture, I could not find the "Small Multiples" section.

    In this section, you can drag your Category column, then the visualization would look similar to your desired picture.

    I think you need to upgrade the power bi desktop to the most current version, then you can see the "Small Multiples" section in the formatting pane when you select Area Chart.

    Hi, Anonymous 

    Please correct me if I wrongly understood your question.

    Instead using stacked area chart, try to use Area Chart.

      Hi Jihwan, As a simple area chart it still shows them stacked instead of dividing them by category like I showed on Tableau.

        Hi,

        Thank you for your feedback.

        In my opinion, it is not stacked.

        If it is OK with you, can you draw your desired outcome?
