Control line in a dynamic chart

Hello everyone,

i have a graph in which i want to insert a conrol line. in the dashboard there is a slicer to choose a range of dates and because of this i need that the control line will be dynamic.

for example if i choose a range of 2 days then the control line will be 6, and if i choose a range of 5 days then it will be 15 (3 for every day).

so i succeed to create a measure that will count the number of days chosen, the problem is that for creating a control line i need to put the values in each record in the table but when i insert the measure in the column the output is always 1 although the measeure in a card is different.

I tried to create a control line using only a measure but coudnt succeed.

 

Thank you in advance.

@noamshn Review the attached screenshot based on Date Range selected Control Line would be updated.Screenshot_2.pngScreenshot_3.png

 

Days Difference = DATEDIFF(MIN('Table'[Date]),MAX('Table'[Date]),DAY)

Control Line = [Days Difference]*3

Hope it works.

did you use line and clustered column chart? because in the card visual i see the value correct but in the chart the value is 0.

@noamshn I'm using Clustered Column chart and use control line as a constant line. You can add constant line by using Analytics Pane. Please review the attached screenshot.Screenshot_4.png

 

Hope it works.

Hi @noamshn 

Can you please share a pbix or some dummy data that keep the raw data structure with expected results? It should help us clarify your scenario and test to coding formula.
