Indenting Matrix Measure

Hello,

 

I am trying to replicate an Excel file in Power BI, and I have everything duplicated except for the indentation of some of the row headers.

Now normally, I could just add the leading spaces in the back end, but unfortunately I had to create each of these as a measure to get the correct numbers, and then simply select "Switch Values to Row Headers" in the Matrix Formatting.

 

I am just wondering if there is a workaround to get the names of these measures indented. I have tried adding leading spaces to the name of the measure, but that just gets removed when it displays the name. I have also tried to add leading spaces to the display name of the measure, but that also gets removed when it displays the name. I have also tried to add a small character, such as a period, to the beginning of the name, and then add the leading spaces, but that removes all of the leading spaces except for one, which is not quite enough.

 

Thank you in advance!

    I have used the Character Map utility to copy and paste an empty space.

    Hope you can get this to work for you.
