Tooltip line multiple charts

Hi all - me again!

 

I have another query. I have 2 line charts above each other on a page.

 

I'm not sure of the exact term, but when moving across the chart there is the tooltip line that shows the value of the line chart.

 

Can you make it so the line and values appear on 2 charts at the same time, as my X axis is the same for both charts?

 

The image below shows what I mean. You can see the bottom chart shows the value of 88.68 @ 09:13, but I would like at the same time for the line to appear on the top chart for the value on the top chart at 09:13 also (at the same time).

 

Is this possible? Hope my dodgy explanation makes sense.

 

Grateful for any advice 🙂

If you plot both lines on the same chart, then the tooltip will have the effect of showing both value at a particular time.2019-11-02 17_35_10-2019 - Power BI Desktop.png

 

Hey @Anonymous 

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

I can't seem to plot 2 series on a line chart for some reason. When I drag the series into the values field, it removes whatever was in there previously, and allows only one series 😞

 

I tried to get around it by using a line and clustered column chart, however that doesn't work for me either, as I have legends for days of the week, whereas this graph combines the days into 1 single series.

 

Thanks again - I suspect it is probably me doing something wrong here. Power BI is a steep learning curve!

Very odd -

 

My line chart has 3 different data series in the Values area. My Legend area is blank, my Axis is "Deldate"
