Let's say I have a table with 3 columns:
Hours, StartDate, EndDate
If I want to show a graph with on the X dates and on the Y hours, how can I spread hours over time?
For example:
400, 2019-01-01, 2019-01-29
Graph with X on weekly basis should look like:
100, 100, 100, 100
Are there visuals that can do this? Or do I have to create seperate rows for every date in the data model devided by the amount of days? It would add tons of rows for every existing row. I hope there is a better solution...

I did something very similar to this once and put it in the Quick Measures gallery as Hours Breakdown.

You could potentially do it as a measure but might also have luck creating a DAX table, just depends. DAX and Power BI are really built and optimized to summarize raw data, not invent data from summarized data. You're kind of going about it backwards.
