How to achieve Percent of column total through DAX in bar chart

Hello everyone,

We've successfully obtained the "Percent of Column Total" results in the Matrix visualization. Now, I'm looking to replicate the same outcome in a bar chart. Despite attempting various DAX queries, I haven't been able to achieve the desired results.
Note: I am using Clustered bar chart

Hi @Raj341 

 

You can try this measure. 

Measure = DIVIDE(SUM('Table'[viewers]),CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[viewers]),ALLSELECTED('Table'[Apps])))

Your current measure uses ALL('Sheet1'), this will remove all filters on table 'Sheet1', which finally gives you the percent of grand total. To have the percent of column total, you need to remove filters on the column field.

Thankyou for sharing the logic.
I am using wrong Dimesion, based on your screenshot. I realized my mistake.

@Raj341 , The measure formula is correct. You can use allselected in place of all, so the other filter can pass.

 

You can enable the label to show it on visually.

 

You can use this new measure as label details to show both labels
