Need ideas for a stacked column+totals+forecast line

I currently have a stacked column chart, I needed to show the totals of each column, so I added a line and hide it, everything ok so far.

Now...I need to add a line with the forecast with different sltyle than the other (not invisible) I can't figure out how to get this working...

Any idea?

Thank you!

@alefielm you should create a measure for you forecast line and add that line into  Line Value section and then you can choose any style for this new measure.

 

Only return value in forecast measure when actual forecast starts otherwise return BLANK(), it will stop it showing the forecast line for historical dates. Hope this helps.

 

Would appreciate Kudos 🙂 if my solution helped.
