Line Stacked column chart right y-asstartpoint isn't correct

Hi,

I have a problem with the right Y-Axis. The Y-Axis start at 0, but I thought auto will automatically choose the right start and end Y-Axis. I can change the start Y-Axis to 0.00020000, but than I have to change the start Y-Axis if the value is lower than 0.00020000.

Is there are other way that start: auto works correct for the Y-Axis? Or is this a issue in Power BI desktop?

First, you should know that if you choose Y-Axis starts as Auto. By default, Power BI will display the Y-Axis as starting at 0. This is by design.

Then in your scenario, why do you think that the start of Y-Axis is wrong? There exists blank spaces. Does this mean there are 0 values in your chart?

And as you said that you can change the start Y-Axis to 0.00020000, but then you have to change the start Y-Axis if the value is lower than 0.00020000. This also means that you don’t know the exact start of Y-Axis. Right?

 

So in my opinion, the best choice for you to set the start of Y-Axis is still 0. Also, I would suggest you that you can submit an Idea for improving the visual auto-scale feature at Ideas .

 

Thanks,
Xi Jin.
