Min/Average/ Max column Chart: an "unstacked" stacked chart?

Hello,

 

I'm trying to create a "stacked" chart where each value is displayed individually, but don't aggregate. In other words, if I'm trying to display a minimum, average and max value, each is displayed against the corresponding axis  and as part of the maximum value: ie they don't all add up to a total. The visual would look something like this:

It is similar to the Stock Chart visual (but I need a category on the x-axis and not a date). I tried both the custom visuals "Candlestick" and "Box and Whisker" but can't get them to display what I need.

 

Any ideas?

(EDITED: Apart from creating new measures which are the difference between them to stack them up that way, which wouldn't allow to display the absolute value for each)

 

Thanks!

 

Paul

In this scenario, you just need to create a calculated table to summarize the min, max and average into columns.

 

Table =
SUMMARIZE (
    Category,
    Category[Category],
    "Min", MIN ( Category[Value] ),
    "Average", AVERAGE ( Category[Value] ),
    "Max", MAX ( Category[Value] )
)

Hello, 

 

I just tried the solution, but it still aggregated the at the axis level and it is not different from the normal stacked chart. I have provided the visual below.

Capture1.JPGI created the column using the code provided, but the visual I can also achieve by repeating the same filed and selecting it as minimum, average, and maximum respectively. 

 

Thanks for your efforts.
