How to create the S curve in Design
Hi everyone,
Could you please share how to create the S curve in PowerBI?
Thank you for your help 🙂
That shape is not a Power BI chart.
Options:
Create it in PowerPoint / Figma / SVG
Import it as an Image or Background
Or use a custom SVG visual (advanced)
Power BI does not natively draw free-form curves.

Hi Iceberg12 ,
I hope you are doing well today 🙂❤️
That S-curve shape is not a native Power BI chart. Power BI does not support drawing free-form or decorative curves purely for design purposes.
Options you can use:
Solution 1: Create the S-curve externally (Recommended)
The S-curve shape is not a native Power BI chart. You can design it in PowerPoint, Figma, Illustrator, or as an SVG, then import it into Power BI as an image or background.Solution 2: Use the image as a page or visual background
Once designed externally, set the image as:Page background, or
Visual background
This works well for purely decorative or design-focused S-curves.
Solution 3: Approximate the S-curve using a Line chart
If the curve represents data:Create cumulative or dummy data points
Use a Line chart
Hide axes, gridlines, and headers
This visually mimics an S-curve while remaining data-driven.
Solution 4: Use SVG or Deneb custom visual (Advanced)
Use SVG in a table or
Use Deneb (Vega-Lite) for full control over curve drawing and styling
Best for advanced customization.
Solution 5: Use Charticulator
Charticulator allows you to design highly customized visuals and shapes, which can then be used inside Power BI.Important note:
Power BI does not natively support free-form curve drawing. All decorative S-curve designs must be created externally or simulated using data visuals._________________________________________________________________________________________
