Dynamic Linear Gauge

Anonymous 

To achieve the desired functionality of stacking the months that are before the selected month in your Linear Gauge visual, you can utilize the following approach:

1. **Data Preparation**:
- Ensure your dataset contains a column for the month and another column for the sales data.
- Create a calculated column that assigns a value of 1 to the selected month and a value of 0 to all other months. This column will be used to filter the data.

2. **Visual Configuration**:
- Configure your Linear Gauge visual to use the calculated column created in the previous step as a filter.
- Set up the target value for the gauge to represent the target sales for the selected month.
- Adjust the settings of the Linear Gauge visual to display the sales data for all months before the selected month. You may need to adjust the formatting or aggregation settings to achieve the desired result.

3. **Interaction**:
- Enable interactions between the Linear Gauge visual and other visuals in your report. This will allow users to select a specific month from another visual (e.g., a slicer or dropdown) and dynamically update the Linear Gauge visual to display the corresponding sales data.

By following these steps, you should be able to create a Linear Gauge visual that stacks the sales data for months before the selected month and compares it to the target. Additionally, you can explore other visuals such as line charts or stacked bar charts that offer similar functionality and may better suit your requirements.
