Hi AnthonyC,

 

The KPI shows the trend along the axis. If you'd like to show only a number, I would suggest you use a Card visual instead. Please refer to the snapshot below. What's your expected result?

    Good morning Dale thank you for the response. The only reason I can't use a card to acheive my objective is that the report will be used mainly on a phone and Power Bi does not allow for stacked visuals on phone layout. Your Snapshot is basically what I am looking for although I do prefer the design of the KPI visual. Is that a kpi visual with a card overlapping or is that a custom visual from the app store? 
    The visual is meant to show day to day changes in inventory costs. Using an added column that uses index and lookup to subtract current day to previous day I am getting the correct numbers, just searching for a visual to display that information in an easy to understand manner.

      Hi AnthonyC,

       

      I thought you were using this visual. It's from the MarketPlace. 

      How will you do with "stacked visuals"? Overlapping some visuals together?

      Can you share some snapshots?

       

       

      Best Regards,
      Dale

        Hey v-jiascu-msft

        I am using the KPI visual. The word Number next to the word Goal is correct, What I am trying to do is Delete the word Goal.

        What I meant by overlapping is creating a card displaying the number next to Goal and just physically placing it under the large number, but the phone layout does not allow stacked visuals.
