Hi - I created a bar chart displaying the count of flavors of ice cream and grouped them in their respective regions. I am having trouble getting the distance between the columns all even. I also want to be able to categorize each group of columns for each region by decreasing amount.
I attached a link of my graph as a reference. I apologize if the data appears nonsenical as it's a mock up for my work.
In addition, are there any good sources to refer to when making visuals or Power BI support reps I can directly contact?
Thank you so much!
Hi @alfiethedog,
First, the distance between the columns is a design behaviour, we can't change it. Please review the feature quest below, and vote it.
Add Size, Gap Properties to Bar and Column Chart
Second, in each region, you want to sort the column by amount in descending order, right? If it is, each group of column is decided the field added in Legend, which is still unsupported up to date.
