Using Data bars in Table visual or Show Matrix visual as Flat Table

Hi Friends,

I am looking for an option to show the progress percentage (calculated from estimation hrs and completed hrs) in a tabular format. I think we can have a Custom Column for the Progress percentage or a measure and show that in the table visual. But How can we show data bars or a kind of progress bar for the same?


Not sure if we can show the progress bar in the table visual?

And If I have to choose a Matrix visual then I am not sure how can I show flat tabular data similar to a table visual along with the progress bar.

 

Please advise on this.

 

Here is the data source. and below is the view that the table visual gives. Can I get a similar view from Matrix Visual as well?

Hi @prabhatnath 

Unfortunately, your data source is locked (you need to modify the sharing and give the access , not just copy the link).
So I will use some dummy of mine 🙂

You can get something like that using conditional formatting and some tricks.
This method works with matrixes and with flat tables.
