I have a dataset that contains Year and Actor. Actor column has approximately 8,000 rows and Year column has 30 rows.
I've tried to show a column chart but the chart does not display.
Is that a limit based on my expectation? If it is, I wish another option that I need to sum all actors by years then display the chart. What is the keyword you'd recommend me to study about?
Thank you.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I think I can find a way to count the total of actors then show by year by using Measure (under Value).
Hi @s15,
>>I've tried to show a column chart but the chart does not display.
Column chart not support show text in value field, you can right click on that column and choose a summary function to convert it to value.
