How To Disable Inline Hierarchy
Hello, it seems that since I have recently updated to the September 2022 version of Power BI Desktop, inline hierarchy has become the default and I do not know how to turn it off. I found a microsoft article, that says sometimes you can get stuck in inline hierarchy, and it says to disable it...but it doesn't tell me how. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-inline-hierarchy-labels#how-inline-hierarchy-labels-work
This makes my bar charts extremely difficult to read for users. I saw some old posts that said to try converting it from a bar chart to a column chart and turning off concatenate, which I tried but that didn't work. Concatenate wasn't even selected on. Does anyone know how to Disable Inline Hierarchy?
You can see in this visual I have 3 levels in this hierarchy: State - City State - Store number. It showing all 3 levels at once and I don't need all that info. This visual is not as hard to read as some of the other bar charts that have really long names and go down several more levels...
Yes, Concatenate labels option is not working for bar chart.

ksimpson50502 , Set Concatenate label - On and try.
But this is now by default. Refer for More Details
I understand I need to change the setting, but HOW? If it is the new default, I didn't make any changes to turn it on. Concatenate is not a Y Axis Option
Hi ksimpson50502 ,
Please create a stacked column chart instead of a stacked bar chart.
Turn off Concatenate labels option.
