Clustered column chart

Hello, 

 

I am beginning on Pocwer BI and I am trying to create a column chart to display the number of times a country is mentioned (in percentage). I have a table like so :

 

Country Date
FranceX
Luxembourg x
Irelandx
Francex
France x

 

I have categorized the data for "country" as Country.

 

And I have a measure like such : 

Measure 2 = CALCULATE(COUNT('test country'[country]))
 
When I use this measure for my column chart (with the data from the colum country of my table), it only shows a count. So I changed the value part of the histogram (in which I put my measure) to show the % of the grand total. The problem is it shows the percentages but with decimals. Is there a way to only have the rounded percentage ? 
 
Thank you for your help !! 🙂

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Please create a new Measure to calculate the percent for you, then change its Format to Percentage and the number of decimal places to 0.

Country% =
VAR totalCountry =
    COUNTROWS ( ALL ( 'test country' ) )
VAR countCountry =
    COUNT ( 'test country'[Country] )
RETURN
    countCountry / totalCountry
