KPI card rotation - contains dynamic date and time

hey guys,

 

is there a way to rotate the KPI card with a date and time (changes every time the data refreshes).

I know that I can use a shape and enable the text part but when I select the measure or date time text field is turning to red.

Is there any alternative to this? Thanks in advance

All good for this one. Thank you!


What I used was a square to rotate the text inside it.
For the date and time to be added, I created a measure to concatenate the text and dynamic data refresh.

Hi @non23  - Unfortunately, Power BI currently does not support rotating text or shapes directly. However, you can use the Angle property in the Visual Header (if available) to apply a slight tilt to the shape.For a custom rotated effect, you might need to design the text in an external tool (e.g., PowerPoint or Photoshop) and import it as an image.

 

you can check for rotation is critical, using a custom visual like Card with States by OKViz or similar third-party visuals that might allow additional formatting options.

 

Hope this helps.
