I am looking for a solution to view percentage of column total (even if it has been filtered) on a stacked bar chart tooltip. I have implemented many different solutions I have come across but to no avail.
Previous solution suggested:
This solution for me is parsing the percentage across the entire chart instead of breaking based on x-axis categories. Is this the intention and/or is it possible to get it to break down by the x-axis values? For instance in my chart I break it down by group, and am needing to look at what percentage each group has for stories that are completed vs not. I would expect my Stories Completed to be showing 90 some percent for each JK and JR Stories Completed relative to their column.
That solution then results in each tooltip being %100 no matter which Category you are hovering over.
Correction I was using the DAX of
HI @degnek ,
Maybe you can try to use the below formula, it will calculate the aggregate value of the current category with the total value.
PercentageStories =
DIVIDE (
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'Monthly Totals'[Num Value] ),
ALLSELECTED ( 'Monthly Totals' ),
VALUES ( 'Monthly Totals'[Category] )
),
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'Monthly Totals'[Num Value] ),
ALLSELECTED ( 'Monthly Totals' )
),
0
)

@Anonymous ,
Thanks for the suggestion but unfortunately that still provides a split percentage over the whole instead of parsing it out per column. This resulted in respective Stories Completed being the same 55% and 38%, which does not allow for the knowledge that each group got over 90 percent of their stories completed on time.
If my understanding is correct, the DAX I gave you should have worked.
1. The Measure that shows the % for each column.
2. Expected graph...I hoved over JK and Stories Completed. It show 93.75%.
3. Same graph in step 2 but displayed as table. Now you see the % in JK and JR add upto 100%.
4. Input data as a single table.
Other than that, I see year 2020 in your graph. Where does it comes from?
Are you using the right syntax for DAX?
If this helps, mark it as a solution.
Kudos are nice too.
I am not sure where my calculations are going wrong. I filter some additional categories but have tried the measure with nothing filtered and it is still resulting in each section getting 100%.
