Add a today symbol on a chart

Hello,

I would like to add to one of my charts today's date, as a symbol, on top of the relative bar.

The chart is as per below - can be sliced by equipment line (so as you can see below, volumes can vary by much), and can be aggregated by week/month/year, in which case the symbol should still be visible in the same way on top of the relative bar - but again volumes will look very different.

Can you please help mw on how to set this up?

 

Thanks!

Kind regards

Valeria

@ValeriaBreve , You can have a measure

 

calculate([Your measure], filter(Date, Date[Date] = today()) )

 

Create line clustered line visual and use a new measure on line and disable the secondary y-axis and enable the marker

 

 

Or create a color measure and use that in conditional formatting using field value option

 

if(Max(Date[Date] )= today(), "Red", "Blue") 

 

How to do conditional formatting by measure and apply it on pie?
