Strange behavior in a stacked column chart with 2 lines

[andymc123]

I am currently working on a set of reports that deal with averages and comparing individual and District averages to a national average.  I was able to use some DAX average and averageX formulas to build the data set, and in tables the data seems just fine when it comes to the on-page filters as well as the cross filtering.  In a stacked column chart with 2 lines however, the cross filtering will sometimes add a second Y axis and move the data points in an odd way.

I am just curious if anyone else has seen this?  Maybe there is a quick fix or a setting that I am missing?

Hi @andymc123,

The secondary axis is based on line field values, I'm not so sure why it display/hide when you interact with other visuals. 

Maybe you can manually turn on/off it on format tab.

Thanks!  there is a sub-setting under the Y-Axis settings called "Show secondary".  I needed to apply a cross filter (click on a row in the table that showed both the primary and secondary Y axes) then when I turned off the "Show secondary" the point and line behavior started to work as expected.

This has had me stumped for a while.  I am glad that the fix was literally just clicking on the correct setting switch.
