Dont seem to find a clear answer on this anywhere..is there a way to space out the columns on my chart with the same (year) axis? Is there a different approach to my +20%,+40%,+60% measures that Im not thinking about ?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Using the default clustered bar chart, there is a clumsy way which involves creating measure which return blank and place them between the other measures (though I haven´t found a way to change the colour for the legend)
Or you can create a new table with the % Values:
and use the % Value field as the x-axis, the Fiscal Year for the "column series" and create this measure for the values:
Values =
SWITCH (
SELECTEDVALUE ( '% Table'[% Value] ),
"+20%", [FY FC based on PY YTG (20%)],
"+40%", [FY FC based on PY YTG (40%)],
"+60%", [FY FC based on PY YTG (60%)]
)
You can then use the formatting options for the x-axis to get:

Thank you for these options. Personally I dont love the blank measure option and for my purposes, the alternate visual does not allow you to update the display unit
