Add extra data point to Box and whisker plot for comparing

Hi~

I would like to use a set of standard data to draw a Box and whisker plot, and this plot would be a inspection standard. Then we could put a data of each group into the plot to compare with the standard range.

 

I usually use Line and clustered column chart to achieve, and this requires a lot of personalized adjustment settings cerenterly.

Below is the plot created by excel, the cross mark indicate the data of each group which I put additionally.

I try to use Power BI achieve it.

I use "Box and whisker by MAQ" to draw below plot, but I can't add extra other data point to this plot.

Hi, @Anonymous 

You can only store one field  in the "Value"  of the visual  "Box and whisker by MAQ" . Power BI currently does not support adding a extra special point in  "Box and whisker by MAQ"

As a workaround,you can  try to manually mark the data points on the visual using shapes.Tooltips can also be applied here.
