Problems To introduce a new measure to a value

Hello

I am currently creating a PowerBi dashboard and have already created several measures that are working well on different charts. I just made a new measurement and PowerBi won't let me drag and drop the measurement into the values section of a line chat.

Any idea why this might be happening?

Bless you

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

The line chart value only supports numbers, you could use ISTEXT() or ISNUMBER() to check your measure.

@Anonymous , that is strange. Check the data type of this measure. Or it is valid measure, means created correctly
