For a line & clustered column chart, can we display the y-axis title in starting when we have legend

we have line and clustered column chart in power bi. In this chart, we have on x-axis, the quarters of the year. On column y-axis, we have average margin value of each supplier and on line y-axis we have overall average margin value for all the suppliers. And on legend we have names of suppliers. So now in the graph, in the legend area we are displaying supplier names and in the ending we have title of line y-axis. Now I want to change the legend to diplay line y-axis title and followed by supplier names. The area which I have striked with the black line, there I need to diplay.

Hi @Tejaswini45 

 

In Power BI, the order and content of the legend display is automatically generated based on the data fields and values added to the visual object.

 

For line charts and clustered bar charts, the legend items are usually sorted according to how they are added to the visual object fields in the Visual Effects pane.

 

I recommend that you manually add the required content using the text boxes.
