Issue with Radar chart

Hello,

 

I have a question about using the radar chart visualization.

 

I am not able to overlay data on a radar chart by using the slicer visualization. It is not showing any overlay but only the "first", "last" or count result.

 

My data looks like this:

I would like to overlay sample 1 or 2 or 3 or ..., depending on which I would like to see with category A till M as the "category".

 

CategorySample 1Sample 2Sample 3
A10.90.8
B1.110.9
C0.81.10.7
D1.31.21.1
E1.91.30.4
F1.51.41.3
G0.51.50.6
H0.91.61.1
I11.51.6
J1.41.81
K21.91.8
L2.10.81.9
M1.30.80.7

 

Can somenody help me solve this?

 

Thanks

Hi @evertfeyaerts,

 

In your scenario, you may need to create different measures to calculate results for each Sample ID separately, then show all the measures as Y Axis on the Radar chart.

measure1 = CALCULATE(SUM(Table1[Results]),FILTER(Table1,Table1[Sample ID]="Sample 1"))
measure2 = CALCULATE(SUM(Table1[Results]),FILTER(Table1,Table1[Sample ID]="Sample 2"))
measure3 = CALCULATE(SUM(Table1[Results]),FILTER(Table1,Table1[Sample ID]="Sample 3"))

Hi @evertfeyaerts,

 

What column are you using as Slicer on your report?

 

Could you be more precisely with your issue by post some screenshots?

Hi @v-ljerr-msft

 

I am sorry, I added the wrong data. see below the correct data with some illustrations. The first picture of de radar chart gives me the data of 1 sample and the 2nd picture shows me a "count" of both data and not illustrated separately.

 

Thanks

Hello, I have a related question regarding the radar chart in PowerBI. I have a lot of different cases ( like in this example here sample 1, 2 and 3. I have like 100 different and want to avoid writing a measure for each individual one. Do you know a way to work around writing like a 100 measures and still have all "scenarios" visible on the radar chart? It is meant to be filtered, so there will only a few be visible at the same time.

Thank you in advance!

Perfect! It works, thanks @v-ljerr-msft
