How to create the below chart
Hello Everyone,
How can I create the below chart with milestones on y axis and dates. The planned bar is hatched bar and the actual/ forecasted as solid bar overlapping each other. As well as I want to add conditional formatting to it.
Is it possible in Power BI.
Thank you.
Hi atasgao ,
Based on your description, we recommend you to use a custom Visual - The xViz Gantt Chart.
It has several features that may meet your requirements:
- It can add more columns for categories and values to provide additional information.
- It can add Milestones to keep track of deliverables and major events.
- It apply different colors to nodes based on different rules to highlight the status.
For more information, you can refer to this .
Hope it helps,

Anonymous Thanks, This is helpful.
atasgao Couple options. You could look for a third-party custom visual. Recent updates did add an X-Axis constant in the Analytics sub-pane. To get the overlap without custom visuals you could use stacked visuals (one on top of the other with background turned off on the top one)
Greg_Deckler How can I get the hatched bar??
Greg_Deckler Can you please let me know what are the 3 party visuals where I can have this hatched bar pattern.
Thanks,

atasgao No idea, there are literally hundreds of third-party visuals and I haven't used all of them. If it is the hatched bars you want you might be able to do that with an image, stacked visuals and transparent backgrounds.
