Making minus figures appear positive on axis

Hi all, I'm using a rank 0-1000 on the secondary Y axis. We want to invert the secondary Y axis only but it appears not possible in Power Bi. So I created a duplicate which does *-1. So the new field appears inverted on the chart, but all the numbers are negative. Is there a way to customise the figure and blank the minus sign? Everything I've tried (like trim) in the modelling options removes the minus figure and returns it to it's former state and isn't inverted on the chart. Thanks for reading!

Hi Tomas,

 

Thanks so much for your reply. The first idea almost worked as the values appear as 0_), 50_) etc. I removed that from your suggestion and viewed the entire range and it appears to be working perfectly!

Hi!
You could try having a custom format on the measure so that negative values don't have a minus sign, e.g. #,##0_);#,##0_) as a custom format or something like that.

Another solution (maybe not what you're looking for) could also be to use percentile instead of rank. A different thing but would naturally have 0 % close to the bottom and 100 % at the top.
