Column Wrapping in a Visual

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,

 

According to your description, I create a table to test.

Here is my test table:

Please take following steps:

1)Add an index column from 1 to 9:

2)Create two columns:

ColumnHeader = INT(('Table'[Index]-1)/3)+1

RowHeader = [Index]-3*('Table'[ColumnHeader]-1)

3)Choose matrix visual:

4)The result shows:

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!

Hi,

Share some data, describe the question and show the expected result.
