Cumulate datas from 2 columns in 1 chart

‎10-18-2018 04:37 AM

Hi,

 

My Power BI is connected to a database containing information on movies as per below.

My request is simple: how can I display in a single pie chart the proportion of movies by genre, cumulating the Genre1 and Genre2 ?

 

Thank you for your help,

Alexandre.

Hi @AlCado

 

You may use 'Unpivot other column' in Query Editor first. Then you may get the pie chart as below.

You need to create a new column

 

CumulativeGenre =
CONCATENATE ( Movies[Genre1] & ", ", Movies[Genre2] )

Now use the Pie Chart as usual.
