Line and Clustered Column Chart - Secondary Axis Reappearing

I have a report with a Line and Clustered Column chart in which I do not want to show the secondary Y axis.  The intent is for the columns and line to share a single Y axis.  When I turn off the secondary axis in Power BI Desktop, the visual appears as expected:

However, when I publish to the service, the secondary Y axis is turned back on and the line is moved to an arbitrary place:

This makes the entire visual misleading, because having the line on its own seemingly random axis defeats the purpose of the visual.  Is there a way to fix the bug that is re-enabling the secondary Y axis after publishing?

Hi @jholloway ,

 

Can you provide detailed version information of both Power BI Desktop and Power BI Service,so we can reproduce the issue? please tell us which browser is being used for testing Power BI Service.

We'll get back to the product team as soon as it's acknowledged as an issue!
Thanks in advance!

 

Best regards.

Hello @Anonymous ,

 

Here is our version of Power BI Desktop:  Version: 2.126.1261.0 64-bit (February 2024)

I have tested and found the same issue on both Chrome and Edge browsers.  The issue occurs after publishing the report to a workspace.

 

Here is a thread where a user reported this issue back in 2020:  https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Desktop/Line-and-Clustered-Column-Chart-display-a-single-Y-axis-only/td-p/1265650

 

The accepted solution in that thread was to turn the secondary Y axis on and back off again.  However, that works rarely or not at all.  Changing any slicer value on the report will cause the secondary Y axis to reappear.
