Trying to find/create a certain visual to use in powerbi.

[Marijn514]

Hello experts,

I'm quite new to Power BI Desktop and I'm loving it. However, I'm having trouble with something that might be very easy for many of you.

I'm trying to figure out how to make a clean table visual like the following:

I can notice that the bold part is the title of the visual, but I can't figure out how to recreate this.

When hovering over it with the cursor, only the right side (named "Inkoopmedewerker" to "Parttime") is highlighted; the left side stays fixed. This is how I'd like to show my data as well.

I have tried creating a table visual and other visuals, but my data is displayed horizontally next to each other. It feels like I'm missing something that I can't identify.

I hope you understand my question and can kick me in the right direction.

Thank you!

Dear @v-tangjie-msft 

I have found the solution! I apologize for the time you spent on me.

What I was looking for was a simple textbox. Within this textbox, I could write the names of the information I needed to show from my queries.

After doing this, I could simply add a value with the name of my data, and it would display the data I wanted to show.

Additionally, I learned something new from you about combining visuals. Thank you for that valuable insight!

This is awesome! You've already helped me a lot!

I hope I can explain this correctly. As you can see, I created the table I wanted on the left side. On the right side, I have a table with the input data from my queries. However, the input is generated in a horizontal layout. I tried to draw my idea as an example, showing yellow for what's currently happening and green for how I'd like it to be. Unfortunately, I don't see a "Turn visual sideways" button anywhere.

The whole idea behind this is that when I click a name in another visual containing the employee names, it will filter the specific info about them.

please ignore the blank visual for i have used it to block the sensitive info.
