Hi,
I would like to draw a performance chart.
Let's say I have 3 columns:
- date_and_time
- the_value_how_it_was
- the_value_how_it_was_supposed_to_be.
I would like to have:
- a green area included between the_value_how_it_was_supposed_to_be +/- 10%,
- a yellow area below the_value_how_it_was_supposed_to_be - 10%
- draw a line over these tho areas with the_value_how_it_was.
Here an example:
The best I am able to draw is a line chart with three lines: value, lower bound and upper bound, but it's not so easy to read..
There are any other choices available at the moment to draw a good performance chart?
Hi @giulia_iem,
The closest charts we can create in Power BI Desktop are Area chart and Stacked area chart.
Moreover, you can vote the following idea that combine Line and Area chart.
