how to create a linear line in line chart

TomaKavi — Wed, 18 Jan 2023 10:39:29 GMT

Hello everyone,

I have built a cumulative line in line visual and I want to create a linear line that will show 0 at the start and max Value at the end of the visual. Any tips ? I literally need the black line to be built. I am using dax so all measures are explicit but I cant figure out how to make this basic line :D.

I have tried this

Linear line =

var minvalue = 0

var maxvalue = [Nr. WO]

var startdate = [FirstDateWP]

var maxdate = [LastDateWP]

return

IF(CALCULATE( MIN(DateTable[Date])) <= startdate,0, IF(CALCULATE(MAX(DateTable[Date])) <= maxdate,maxvalue, BLANK()))

this is the result

but I need this

TomaKavi , You can try window for cumulative function or with help from date table

Cumm Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),filter(all('Date'),'Date'[date] <=max('Date'[date])))

Cumm Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),filter(allselected(date),date[date] <=max(date[Date])))

my problem is this measure, if I hardcode this value lets say on 1290 it works perfectly fine. So I need to remove all filters but keep the one used on plane

I have already sorted it out. It was a need to remove a date filter only (for Trend WO number). everything else works just fine

Linear Line Plan =

VAR __MinDate =

[FirstDateWP]

VAR __MinValue = 0

VAR __MaxDate =

[LastDateWP]

VAR __MaxValue =[Trend WO number]

RETURN

IF (

CALCULATE ( MIN ( DateTable[Date] ) ) = __MinDate,

__MinValue,

IF ( CALCULATE ( MAX ( DateTable[Date] ) ) = __MaxDate, __MaxValue, BLANK () )

)
