Highlight Weekends on Line Chart

I am looking to achieve this same result: Line Chart to highlight Weekends

 

I have a Local Date Table with Weekend identified in a calculated column as 1 if true.

My line chart takes information from Ventas and plots it like this:

As you can see I was trying to achieve a similar desired result by conditional formatting the values. My goal was to conditional format the markers since this way, every weekend was going to be identified but with values, not all of them show due to spacing.

 

What can I do in order to efficiently highlight weekends on my line chart?

Hi @AlexPjz 

 

Just as the link you provide:

First of all, I create a set of sample:

Then add a measure:

MEASURE =
IF (
    WEEKDAY ( MAX ( 'Table'[Date] ) ) IN { 6, 7 },
    MAXX ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Value] ),
    BLANK ()
)

The next step is to add a line and stacked column chart, the result is as follow:

If the above one can't help you, could you please provide more raw data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples? It would be helpful to find out the solution. You can refer the following links to share the required info:

And It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.

I am not able to add values like you show since my totals are calculated from a different table which has all the separate transactions.

My date table looks like:

Table where my individual transactions are:

In this one I also have a column with the date named Fecha.


Another problem I see with Line and stacked column chart is that then I am no longer able to have the forecast option on PowerBI. My end result objective is similar to what you showed but would only be missing some formatting to look like this:
