Let's say I have a table with the numbers 1 to 9. It displays in a table visual like:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
I do not want it to display like that though. I want it to wrap so the visual can be shorter and still show all the data, like this:
1 4 7
2 5 8
3 6 9
Is there a way to do this in Power BI?

Hi,
looks fine what I would like to do. However I can't see the pictures, don't see the examples and I can't replicate.
I created the 2 header fields but not sure what to do with them on the matrix visual, help! Thanks!
