If we want to plot a value against time, a step chart would be good, because to reduce the amount of data stored, we might just store the data value and timestamp when there is a change in value. So when we plot that on the graph, we get a step graph

- suyesh_sukbNew MemberStep Graph should be an add on to the Power BI tool. I have been looking forward to the update for awhile now.
- beneuto1New MemberShould allow stacking of series as well. This would be useful when you have series data that is related but measured at different times. Would also be great if could accept data from different tables based on the timestamp without having to join tables.
- mbivijiNew MemberYou can convert the line chart in to a stepped (line) chart ... if you go in formatting. The issue with that is it changes the step in between the two x-axis timestamps not at the actual timestamp, which is misleading representation of our data
