How to plot time data as value on a bar chart?
This seems simple enough until I tried doing it - I have a simple table ( see image ). I am looking to plot working time and average durtion values on a bar chart .... powerbi only allows me to count the time values but not show the actual values. I know there is some sort of work around that converts this to a numerical value ( 1:30 becomes 1.5 ). Is there anyway to show the actual time values?

AFAIK, there's no way. You can submit your idea at Power BI Ideas and vote it up.
By the way, the workaround looks good for me, may I know your concern about it?
