Show on rows not working

‎04-02-2020 06:22 AM

Hi All, 

 

Im having issues with "show on rows" in my matrix. I have enabled it in my formatting tab under "values" but my measure name does not appear on the rows but in the columns instead -- am i doing something wrong? 

 

Thanks.

Did you add any column to rows in your visual?

Where is your measure, in the Rows or in the Columns?
