How do I add labels to Gantt Chart?

Hi Everyone, 

 

I'm trying to add the start date and end date as labels on a Gantt chart, but can't seem to find a way or any other published visualisations in which I can do this. Is there a way I can achieve this/ any other visualistaions that offer this?

 

Example below shows the current version on top vs what I would want it to look like underneathexample 1.png

You can create a measure like this one that has both values and then use that as your data label.

 

DataLabel = MIN(Sheet1[Leaving Date]) & " - " & MIN(Sheet1[Returning Date])

Hello @v-kelly-msft ,

 

Yes I have tried adding labels on the MAQ software Gantt chart, but I can only have the leaving or returing date, not both 😞 

Hi @AlexJ01 ,

 

Can you share your .pbxi file to us for test?

Hello Kelly,

I've uploaded the file to wetransfer at this link https://we.tl/t-IOcK8NNgPo 

Unfortunately I couldn't upload it to a powerbi workspace as my organisation won't allow you access. 

Hi @AlexJ01 ,

 

Upload your .pbix file to a cloud service then share a public link with me.
