Overlapping Bar Chart

Hi.  Is there a way to create a chart in Power BI that looks like this?

I was able to create this in PowerPoint.  It is a Combo chart type with both series as Clustered Bars with the orange one on a secondary axis.  Thanks in advance for your help!  This community has been very helpful.

Might not be exatly what you're looking for but if you search for "Lipstick" when you import visuals, there are a few options that might work!

Thank you.  I did not know the style of the chart was known as lipstick.  The version of the lipstick chart I am using is by a company called Nova Silva.  If you want to publish lipstick charts they charge $141 per year.  My company purchased a license and was immediately able to publish the lipstick charts.  There are some caveats including you can't be using Power BI Pro.  Also, each lipstick chart creator has to pay the fee.  But so far, so good.

 

There are cheaper and better options available on appsource for lipstick charts now. Costs about $84/year for the certified version and $36/year for the standard ones.
