How to add data together in Pie Chart

Hello,

 

I was making a pie chart for age and device category, however, when I made the pie chart it didn't gave me the visuals I wanted to see.

 

This is the result I got:

I would love to merge all that data together, so that I only have 3 device categories, but inside a sum of all the age groups inside. 

 

 

Best regards,

I have found the solution!

 

I basically had to add a simple slicer on with age so that I can filter through the different ages.

Sorry if my explanation wasn't clear enough. I'm still new.

 

Thank you for all the help though! 

 

Best regards,

@Niels_T , This seem fine. what is expected output. Also you can try tree map

In my pie chart you see multiple mobile, tablet, desktop categories for each age-group.

 

I would like to have the data of all age groups into one device category and display it in a pie-chart.

 

The tree chart is a good alternative, however, I am curious how you could also do it in a pie-chart

Hi @Niels_T 

A Treemap may be better suited to what you are trying to do - see this example PBIX file.
