Set default x axis scrolling position

Submitted by on ‎02-25-2020 03:01 PM
Enable selection of the default scroll position for the x-axis on a chart. For example, on a line chart with dates as the x-axis, when not all of the data can display in the view at once, the scroll defaults to the beginning/left end of the x-axis and the most recent dates are at the far end causing the end user to always have to scroll to see the most recent data. If you could set the visual to default to the right end, then the user would only have to scroll if they wanted to see more history.

In mobile view, line charts default to showing the leftmost, earliest data on the x-axis. The more meaningful data to most is the recent data on the graph. Users have to scroll right each time to see most recent data. Could the default be set thus for date/time driven x-axes? Or allow a default setting. Also agreeing with another idea that if you have multiple line charts, they should scroll as a group. Another good idea out here that I upvoted is the ability for mobile views to condense the x-axis for a better fit.

why its takes so long time to implement this simple feature.

Do we have a reason for not getting promoted to get this Critical enhancement to make it available asap.

we talk PowerBi can handle big data stuffs and all but when it comes to presenting the big data in a graph, do we need to ask users to keep scrolling till you reach one end to another.?

Why not just sort the X axis the other way?

Would really appreciate having this feature. Qlik Sense has this feature, btw, so I see no reason that PBI can't have it either. Seems like doing this would be keeping up with the competition.

A lot of comments about sorting the x axis the other way, well, if you're dealing with a large set of years it goes against the natural view of left to right. So, if you're trying to accumulate something on the line, it makes it look like the accumulation is going down, rather than up. very confusing to the user.
