Custom visual for 3D column graph?

TimSavage — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 15:25:15 GMT

Hi,

Can anyone please recommend a source for 3D column graphs? I've experimented with the "stacks" view in the SandDance visual available from MS AppSource, but found that it wasn't letting me apply two columns on the horizontal axes with my own measure on the vertical axis. It always seems to apply a count measure of its own by default to the vertical axis.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Consider building your own, using the Deneb visual.

What do you perceive as the advantage of a 3D visual? does it help you tell the story?

I have a data set that would be compelling to render as a "cityscape", if you will, where different columns (or "towers") would be different categories of data as defined by the combinations of dimensions on the horizontal axes.

Have you looked at the Visuals Marketplace? If you search for "3D" there are a couple of freemium visuals available.
