How to display x axis percentages

Hello,

 

I have a "Lined and clustered columb chart" that displays the amount of people on the Y axis, and then those peoples respective generation and year they were born for the X axis values. I was wondering if it is possible for me to have the percentage of people that fall into each generation next to the X axis' "generation" title. For example, one of the sections of this chart would say "Millenial 18.2%". I think I could use small cards for each generation but this chart might change in the future as a new generation populates the data. Also these cards would not move as I scroll through the chart. Is there any other ways?

@srpeters You could create a separate, disconnected table for your axis values and then a measure that displayes the correct information. See this Disconnected Table Trick article: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Solving-Attendance-with-the-Disconnected-Table-Trick...
