Conditional Format only ONE data marker line - CONTROL CHARTS

Hi There,

 

I'm trying to build a control chart where I want to add a red dot as a data marker to any value beyond the control limits (red dashed lines). I was able to do this by doing the conditional formatting on a bar chart and then changing it to a line chart. When I added more lines to the graph, such as the control limits and mean, the conditional formatting affected both those lines too. How can I add conditionally formatted data markers on only the black line?

Thanks for your help in advance,

 

Peter

      Are there at least any free power bi visuals to replicate a control chart? The ones I see seem to only have a paid subscription...

  • Anonymous just curious how you are under upper/middle/lower control lines? Did you created measures for it or using the Analytic pane from the line visual?

     

    PS: I hardly use custom visuals, unfortunately don't know if there is one that already exists, you need to check by yourself.

      I created measures for it.

  • Anonymous you can add a control line from the analytical pane, try that and see if doesn't show these conditional formatting. Again you have to test it.

      Great suggestion! However, it still didn't work 😞 It now puts it above the red marker... which is slightly better than before, I guess.

       

  • Anonymous not sure what else to tell, I tied. good luck with a custom visual. 😑
