Hello,
Waffle Chart author here.
The Waffle Chart works nice if all the input values are between 0 and 100, but if one of them is over 100, then, the maximum value in the input is considered the 100% value and the rest of the values are calculated using cross multiplication.
There is a nice way to fix this, and it is using the Maximum value column. For example, if the values are greater than 100, then, you can provide what value is 100% in the Maximum value like this:
Group, Value, Maximum Value Female, 3400, 6000 Male, 2600, 6000
Then Female will become 57% and Male will become 43%.
Let me know if this does not solve the problem.
Hello!
Tell me please, why do not properly display information if i use custom visuals WaffleChart???
I think, the problem is with the time zone. But how to fix it?
Thank you.

Hello,
I face some problems as well, all visuals seem to work following your instructions accept one, one column has only answers "Yes", the waffle chart displays 0% in that case?
Do you know what this can be. It is all in the same table...
Thank you in advance for any support on that.
Yes, after some work i figured that out a few days ago. That was exactly what i did!
Thanks! @kiewic
PS: Good job with waffle chart creation 🙂
Hi gonrodrigues,
Could you please elaborate more details about your scenario? Do you create waffle chart visualization in Excel or in Power BI Desktop? We will appreciate it if you can post relevant screenshot.
Thanks,

Hey @v-yuezhe-msft
I have an excel DB and i want to create a waffle chart in Power Bi Desktop.
The results should be 46% and 54% of a total of 6000 headcount and not the percentage of "feminino" when compared to a total of 'masculino' (3240).
Thanks!
What worked for me was to create a Measure that calculates all items in the report excluding any items you would want to filter out. Then using this measure as your max value. This allows your data to display properly all the time, and not to rely on a fixed value.
Example:
Create a measure named "Max Value Example" as follows:
Max Value Example = CALCULATE(count('Gender'[ItemID]),'Gender'[Male/Female]<>"")
I filtered blank values but if you have no null values you can just do a Count for all items.
