Is there a way to insert a line or a call out on specific dates on a line chart. I'd like to point out significant dates.

Turf03 , The information you have provided is not making the problem clear to me. Can you please explain with an example.
ideally, Insert should have value and removal means blank value
Appreciate your Kudos.
Turf03amitchandak for example, I would like to identify a holiday on the line graph

Turf03 , For that One way is to have conditional formatting, which only possible when you have one measure and no legend .
So create a measure like example
Color Date =
var _min =minx(allselected(Date,Date[Year])
return
Switch( true(),
FIRSTNONBLANK('Date'[Year],year(TODAY()))-_min =0 ,"lightgreen",
FIRSTNONBLANK('Date'[Year],year(TODAY()))-_min =0 ,"blue",
"red")Now first create BAR visual and do conditional formatting and in that use "Field Value" Option

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-conditional-table-formatting#color-by-color-valuesOther is have a line with blank and nonblank values based on condition. Refer I use that in this blog

Hi Turf03 ,
You may insert Shapes (such as line or Triangle) into the specific location which you want on Axis of chart, and it is not dynamic as explained. See the attached screenshot.
In addition, you may try to use a combination chart.
- Create a "line and stacked column chart"
- Put column [Date] into shared axis , and put [values] into line values.
- Create a measure that evaluates to the maximum value when Date=specific date(otherwise blank), put this measure into column values.
You may create measure like DAX below:
Specific Date line = IF ( VALUES ( Table1[Date] ) = DATE ( 2020, 9, 1 ), MAXX ( ALL ( Table1[Date] ), MAX ( Table1[Sales] ) ))Best Regards,
Amy
