Hi
Is there a way that i can present my data so it has the categories as the legend, and totals agree/Strongly agree in the pie graph?
Solved! Go to Solution.
First, you need to transform your data:
Go to Edit Query, Select all the columns and Go to Transform - Unpivot Columns
Change the name of columns like you want.
Close & Apply
Create a Chart
Legend-Answer
Details-Type
Values-Count of Answer
Other alternative Chart
Legend-Type
Details-Answer
Values-Count of Answer
To Sort the Answer, create a conditional column (Edit Query) :
If Answer is
Agree 1
Strongly Agree 2
Disagree 3
Strongly Disagree 4
Close & Apply
Select the column Answer in your fields panel and go to modeling Sort By Column: Thenameofyourconditionalcolumn
Switch the fields?

Thanks again for everyone's help!

Hi @rcardozo,
In the Pie Chart, the different colour sectors(like the Red, Yellow, Green, Black) display there are four dategoreis in your Answer field. For each sector, there are multiple sub-sectors based on your Type field. If the result is what you want?

Thanks so much.
I'm very new to BI. How would i go about doing this? Is there a way to combine all the agrees etc in the pie graph?
Like this?
You need to do it either in SQL or manually. Perhaps using Pivot/Unpivot in SQL or Pivot in Excel can do the job.
That is exectly how i need it!
What are the steps that i need to take in order to get this result. Sorry, i'm a bit of a novice.
Build the table as I showed above, and then:
It is a danish version of Power BI :roll: I change it soon, but Værdier = Values and 'Antal af Evaluation' = 'Count of Evaluation'
