Bar char resizing when values change

Hi,

 

I have a report with a stacked bar chart visual that displays a column for each value of the X axis. Using the slicers on the report the count of values in the X axis can change. However this also changes the size of each column. Is there any way to keep a static size of each column?

 

Thanks.

Hi @qmestu ,

This is by design. The size of each bar represents the magnitude of its value. A change in the numerical values will inevitably change the size of the bar. If you want bars with constant values, you can simply create a measure as below and apply it on the X-axis...

Measure =(special value)

If you only want the size of bar in the bar chart not effected by slicer, you can refer the following official documentation to get it.
