View duration in Power BI stacked column chart instead of count

Hi all,

I have the average response duration (mm:ss) for each member in a column and i want to show it in a stacked column chart, legend will be team memebers, it shows the count instead of the actual duration.

A work around i have tried is using the same column as a tooltip but that's not how i want it, i want the length of each stack to represent the duration actually, so the stack representing that a team member usually replies in 3 mins will be smaller than the stack representing that a team member usually replies in 4 mins.

I deleted the team member column for privacy.

Please find the template here.

Hi @Sokkary ,

 

As you can see, the average response duration is text type.

Text formatting can't show length in a stack chart.

As a workaround, you can convert duration (mm:ss) into seconds (s) to show the length in a numeric data type.
