Line chart intermittent line

[hylosko]

Hello power bi experts !

It is any possibility to do line chart like in my picture ? 

W - it is week, for example 1,2,3,4,5

@hylosko , You need to have two measures, One line might not serve the purpose

if you are looking for forecasting, there is an option in analytics in visualization property pane

[hylosko]

and second question is any possibility to do  second measure like the dotted line

 ?

Hi @hylosko ,

According to the documentation, we can only set predicted values for incremental numeric or date x-axis.

Introducing new forecasting capabilities in Power View for Office 365 :

Forecast is available for line charts only. The x-axis value needs to have a date/time format or be a uniformly increasing whole number.

• It can’t contain text or decimal numbers.
• Sometimes x-axis values appear to be dates, but they’re actually formatted as text. They won’t work for forecasting.

If you still want the x-axis of the line chart to contain text, then you need to create measures for the forecast values. For example, in my example data, I used a simple linear regression equation to predict the value( [Simple linear regression] ), which means that the measure is equivalent to the FORECAST function in Excel. You can use other methods for prediction as needed.

Measure = 
VAR lastnotblankweek =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( Dates[WeekNum] ),
        FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ), [SumValue] <> BLANK () )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        MAX ( Dates[WeekNum] ) = lastnotblankweek,
        [SumValue],
        IF ( [SumValue] = BLANK (), [Simple linear regression] )
    )

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.
Best Regards,
