GANTT visual with text
- 1 year ago
Hi Anonymous - Power BI doesn’t natively support Gantt charts, but you can use third-party Gantt chart visuals available from the Power BI marketplace, such as "Gantt Chart by MAQ Software" or "Gantt Chart by xViz." These visuals allow you to create Gantt charts, but modifying them to include custom text inside arrows may require some additional steps.
Custom Formatting for Arrows: Power BI's custom visuals don’t support directly adding text into shapes like arrows. However, you can:
- Use Bar Charts: Create a stacked bar chart with custom labels to simulate arrows some thing like this you can try.
- Use Overlay Techniques: Place text visuals over the Gantt chart bars. Each bar can represent your promotional timeline, and labels with measures can show the name, duration, and commitment date.
In your case, it's not fully possible to directly replicate this custom visual in Power BI due to its design limitations, but you can creatively use stacked bar charts, labels, and text boxes to simulate the look you're going for.
Hope the above suggested process helps.
