Display the R-Squared Value of a Trend Line

[JAnders]

Hello, I am new to Power BI. I'm working on a scatter plot that has a trend line in it. How do I see the R-Squared value for the trend line? Thank you in advance!

Can someone explain why this is not a built in feature? This seems like it would be a very common need for many people.

Agree that this should be a simple built-in check-box option when adding a Trend Line to a Scatter Chart. This is the best solution I could find for a single trend line: https://www.c-sharpcorner.com/article/how-to-get-correlation-coefficient-in-power-bi/

or if you need something more dynamic (in DAX): https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/healthcare-and-life-sciences/use-custom-dax-to-create-a-linea...

Nothing built-in at this time. You would have to manually calculate it as a measure.

This is basic Excel Chart formating 101.  Are there plans to add this functionality in BI?  There is already resistance to this product and if the most elemental of statistical values require manual calculations, that's not going to help.
