Line and clustered column chart - Comparing MoM
v-qiuyu-msft, Thanks for the reply. I am essentially trying to recreate this chart in Power BI instead of Excel. Is it not possible?
The Issue I have with the Line and Clustered Column Chart is the following:
and I don't know if there's really a solution other than creating individual Measures for the LIne Values
The Column Series automatically slice the data into years however I wish they would do the the same for the Line Values!
(I do realize it says Column Series so it slices the Data only for the Column Values)
However I wish this actually acted more I guess like a Legend (slicing both Measures for the Columns and the Lines)
Hopefully this example will illustrate...
So here's my setup
Shared Axis - Month
Column Series - Year
Column Values - Volume
Line Values - Avg Price (represented by Green Line in picture)
PLUS a Year Slicer!
So by default you'll automatically get a column for each Year with only one Measure in the Column Series.
However if you do not write explicit Measures for the years selected
you'll get 1 line averaging each Month's price over all years selected - the one in green.
To get the individual lines you have to write separate Measures!
Hope this makes sense...
I hope they add a feature like this someday in the not too distant future :smileyhappy:
Thanks! :smileyhappy:
Any suggestions are welcomed:smileyhappy:

Sean Wow this actually helped a ton. So I got it to compare my costs by month side by side. But my clicks (line value) is just showing the average. Is there a line series function like the column one has for these types of chart? Because I want it to show my 2015 clicks & 2016 clicks as lines.
