Bar chart by category with total

Hi all,

 

Here a preview of my data:

 

and I would like to have something like this:

How I proceed to get this:

 

I created one graph with the data athlete and the distance runned by athlete (left graph)

I created another graph with the data athlete and the max of distance goal (right graph)

and then I put one on top of the other to get the result

 

Is there a better way to get this ?

 

Thanks in advance

 

Kind regards

Saam

 

 

  • Create a measure along the lines of:

    Distance to goal = [Goal]-[Distance Run]

    Then create the stacked chart with the [Distance run] and [Distance to goal] measures. Turn on the "Labels" & "Total label" in  the formatting pane, and if you want to sort the visual by Goal, add the goal measure to the Tooltips. And you get this:

      I tried your solution but it is not okay for me.

       

      Actually i am looking to show for example for the athlete a that he runned 500kms of 500 kms

      and athlete g runned 130 kms of 410 kms (his goal) like represented in my first post.

       

      With your visual, i have for each athlete the total runned and on top the goal distance.
