Animated Bar Chart Race-how to get the negative numbers to show

Good day,

 

It's my first post here. I require some assistance please.

 

I've been using the Customised Animated Bar Chart Race visual, and I have both positive and negative figures (for example Cash Flow per year per Project) to depict. However, this visual doesn't appear to show the negative values (in detail), I have less than 10 items, so no need to adjust for the ranking criteria. 

 

My query relates to "How do I move the axis as to depict both the positive and negitive values as it flows through the years (period), I need to amend the axis that it doesn't start from 0, but rather to a custom negative value, is this possible".

 

Thanks & regards,

I tried that visual and don't see an option to set the min value. You could try to normalize your values to hack it, but it might be easier just to use a regular bar chart visual along with the play action slicer.

Hi Pat,

 

Thank you for your prompt response, much appreciated. 

 

Unfortunately this option wouldn't work, as I'm layering 4 different graphics onto 1 page, all of these graphics has the same Legends (Projects A, B, C, D, E, etc), however each graphic would depic rankings of key KPI's, for instance one would show Production/Sales, another would be EBITDA (Earnings) another would be Cash Flow and the last would be valuation.

 

Hence I would like to see how these metrics rank and progress over time across a broad range of KPI's, so visually a project might have great sales and earnings, but rank much lower on Cash Flow due to Capex profile. 

 

But anyways, thanks for trying to assist, much appreciated.

 

regards
