Vertical dot chart for different measures
I wonder if its possible to create such graph:
but to have in the x axis different measures:
The goal would be to show different measures, how all categories are performing within each measure, and highlight the one choosen by the user. Is it possible to have on x axis diffrerent measures (not creating several charts next to each other)? For the simplicity I am using here two measures total sales and total sales dummy.

Hi @Pk8524 ,
Thanks for lbendlin's reply!
And @Pk8524 ,
First of all, if you want to achieve the effect shown in this picture:
Then you are currently using the wrong visual object.
You need to use Scatter chart:
In addition, you need to put different measures into the visual object, but no matter which visual object, you can only put one measure in the Y-axis.
You need to add a new table with one column containing all the Values that will appear on the x-axis (the names of all the measures to be displayed). For example:
Then use this DAX to create a measure:
Measure =
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[X-axis]) = "Measure1", [Total Sales],
SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[X-axis]) = "Measure2", [Total Sales Dummy]
)
Put the column X-axis into the X Axis of the Scatter chart and the measure into the Y Axis of the Scatter chart:
The example is on the second page of the pbix I gave you.
Best Regards,
Dino Tao

It's the wrong chart type. Your X axis items are sorted randomly (alphabetically). A Radar chart may be more appropriate.
What distinguishes Measure1 from Measure2 ? In other words - apart from the SubCategory what is the other defining dimension that should go on the x axis? Customer?
