Re: Image URL on axis?

Martijn1 · ‎11-18-2017

I managed to add images to Power BI Desktop based on Dropboxlinks and show them in a slices or as values in a table.

I then tried to also add them on the x axis of a chart. Instead of showing the images, the dropboxlinks are shown. Isn't is possible to show images on the axis, or am I doing something wrong?

See example below. The links in the chart should be the images shown in the table at the right.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Regards, Martijn

Hi Martin,

I am also trying to put the images on x axis, can you please explain , how you did it?

Hi, I tried to make it on various ways, but didn't get the result I wanted. I think there isn't a visual for our wishes at this moment

Hi @Martijn1

try Infographic Designer custom visual instead. you can add image urls only for tables and charts which allows image urls.

Hi @dilumd,

Thanks for your reaction! I am going to dry it, put the examples I see in the link are not what I would like to have. But maybe the designer is also able to put image urls on the x axis of a chart. I'm busy these days, but will let you know if Infographic Designer solved my 'problem' (more a nice to have wish).

Kind regards,

Martijn
