Hi all,
Is there a way I could create this chart in Power BI?
Where the current quarter is a colour,
the same quarter in previous years is a lighted shade,
all other quarters are grey?
Thanks for any advice.
Solved! Go to Solution.
this is how you need it
need to create two calendar tables

Your solution is so good, and nearly what I need. I don't need to the currrent quarter, I need to highlight the quarter selected in the slicer (obviously in a non-connected chart).
I have updated your pbix here with guidance. https://dropmefiles.com/pk6dF
Amazing. Thanks so much, you are very talented.
