Plot values between two dates measures

Hi everybody,

I have a table of activities which contains some dates and some numerical values. I created a first measure with today's date (TODAY() function) and another measure which depends of a slider to compute n previous day (second_measure = first_measure - n_days). 

 

I would like to plot my activities values between these two dates. I tried to create a calendar between first and second measure but PBI do not allow me to use it as x_axis ? 

 

Does any of you have an idea of how to do it ?
Kind regards

Rather than using the two measures you are using, can't you just use a normal date slices on your date table using the "between" option as below.

As for not being able to use on axis - is the relationship set up correctly between your fact and date table?
