Percentage fill of Bar chart OR Data Label Displays different Measure

Hello Power BI Community, 

I would like to fill a bar chart with a percentage "ontime" I already have the measure. I currently am using a lipstick graph as seen below. However, for this I need to put the number ontime as the inside column not the percentage. Is there a way to have a percentage fill o na bar chart. Or to have the data label display the precentage measure instead of the current one?

Hi, @Anonymous ;

Was your first image generated in Power BI? Can you see which visual it is, as far as I know if it's a bar chart, it should show two bars together.

Or you try changing the data show type.

@v-yalanwu-msft Yes it is a clustered bar chart. However, I do not want two bars next to each other. I want the barchart filled to a percentge with a measure. I tried using a lipstick chart but it will not do percentages
