Custom Visual Creation
Hi
So...look at the Visualisations tab and you will notice the R letter...
This is pretty awesome becuase.... in Power BI there is the ability to bring in custom R visuals using gg-plot libraries which could be useful to you, or you could create your own and modify it to your needs.
Here is a link that provides a tutorial. https://github.com/Microsoft/PowerBI-visuals#building-r-powered-custom-visual-corrplot
Here are galleries of what is possible :
http://r-statistics.co/Top50-Ggplot2-Visualizations-MasterList-R-Code.htmlHere is a version of R you can install for free: https://mran.microsoft.com/open
And here is an oveview of getting started: https://microsoft.github.io/PowerBI-visuals/tutorials/funnel-plot-from-r-script-to-r-custom-visual/overview/
The answer is yes you can create your own custom visual if you would like to invest the time to learn how to do it.
