Tachometer - change size of sections w/out changing data

I have a tachometer built and want to make each section the same size even though the ranges are somewhat different. 

 Just for aesthetics, the middle sections looks so much larger so I want to adjust these to make them look more balanced - is this possible?

Hi,@debbief 

Regarding the issue you raised, my solution is as follows:

1.We haven't yet found a way to keep the range size on the tachometer appearance regardless of the data size, here are the view types I added:

2.Here's what I can suggest as an alternative:

You can try using other visualizations, such as radial meter diagrams
Here is the documentation for the radial instrument diagram:

Radial gauge charts in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

You can replace the value in the visual object with a number that can make the tachometer look the same size, by inserting a label to display the value:
