Sliding legend

Hi everyone, I saw sliding legend in one of the visuals, which are built in Power BI desktop. How this feature can be recreated in custom visual? Regards, Yerkhan

Hi Anonymous,

I mentioned in my earlier post that you will need to have a selection ID for each entry, otherwise the legend utility will not work. Unfortunately for your case you cannot provide a null value here so will need to provide something valid. It's highly likely that this is causing your legend to break.

Hi dm-p ,

 

Got it regarding selection id. How does regular line chart works? It has date as axis, category as grouping for data, and legend is built based on category. I wanted to recreate it, but with cumulative values.

Regards,

    Hi Anonymous,

    I'm not entirely sure I follow - you can manage cumulative measures with the core line chart and DAX. Is there a specific feature you're trying to manage in your custom visual?

    Thanks,

    Daniel

    dm-p ,

     

    I can't use DAX since I'm using live connection to OLAP cube. I wanted to recreate line chart, but make cumulative calculations inside of visual. However, by legend doesn't work, as I mentioned before.
