    Hi danielvt,

    I am afraid that there is no method to display both values in different colors in Gauge chart.

    Instead, it is appropriate to use the DialGauge custom visual in your scenario.

    Thanks,

Hi danielvt,

What do you want to display in the visualization? A Gauge chart is used to display a single value that measures progress toward a goal/KPI. If you intend to use pipeline sales to represent your target value, you can add it in Gauge chart and format its color using Data colors option.



However, if there is no relationship between actual sales and pipeline sales, and you just want to display them in a visualization with different colors, you can create pie chart, line and stacked column chart and so on, then change colors of different data areas. There is an example for your reference.



Thanks,
Lydia Zhang

Hi Lydia,

thank you very much for you answer.

I search for a solution to display the two sales volumes within the same chart.

My first idea was to use a slicer for the filtering, so I the user can decide if the confirmed sales
volume, the initialized sales volume or both should be displayed.

 

Confirmed

 

Initialized

 

A perfect solution would be if both values are selected if they could dipslayed maybe in differend colors
with a separate description, like the following mockup.

 

Thanks,

Daniel
