    Hi Anonymous,

     

    You can write a measure to calculate out correspond value as 'reference line', then drag it to value field to achieve your requirement:

    Reference = 
VAR _current =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Sample'[Index] )
VAR _min = 0
VAR _max =
    MAXX ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Sample' ), [Amount] )
RETURN
    IF (
        _current = MINX ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Sample'[Index] ), [Index] ),
        0,
        _current * _max
            / COUNTROWS ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Sample' ) )
    )

     

    If you still confused on coding formula, please share some sample data for test.
