Add Extensible Excel Style "Custom Combo Chart" to Power BI
I would like to suggest the addition of an extensible "Excel Style Combo Chart" feature to Power BI. This feature would allow users to create highly customizable combo charts, similar to those available in Excel. Key functionalities should include: Multiple Series Types: Enable users to add multiple series of any type (e.g., columns, bars, stacked, area, lines, points) within a single chart. Overlay, Order, Opacity: Allow users to overlay different visual types, control the order of series, and adjust the series' opacity to achieve the desired visual effect. Custom Formatting: Provide extensive customization options for each series, including colors, line styles, borders, transparency, markers, and more. This feature would greatly enhance the flexibility and functionality of Power BI visualizations, allowing users to create more complex and informative charts tailored to their specific needs. Indeed, I think if the "Custom Combo Chart" was done well it would eliminate the need to create so many various single purpose charts. Thank you for considering this suggestion.
Best choice of custom visual

Effect of Filtering a Chart
Hey Community, I am currently working on a report where I use several Charts (Pie Charts, Bar Charts, ..). When I filter on a certain value in another Chart ( Drillthrough) then the charts show the value of the filtered population relative to the whole poulation: But I would like the whole chart to update if a filter is applied by another Chart. So for example if I am filtering for a certain year I want my distribution in that certain year. So something looking like this: How can I achieve this? If you have any questions about what I mean do not hesitate to ask. Thanks!!! Jonny
Creating Visual based on running weekly values
Hi all, My brain is pretty much fried trying to think of the logic behind this so hoping somebody may have done something similar or have a good idea how to create the below chart as a chart within Power BI. The above table is currently manually put together within excel. I am trying to replicate it within a report so the manual aspect is taken away. What the business is looking for is a chart which calculates the value of invoices processed during the week (showing as the Actuals per week), this week approvals are jobs awaiting to be invoices and the targets are static. I "currently" don't have an issue actually calcualting the data as I have everthing set to put together. So my question is to see if it is possible to automate this. Is there a way, where if a month was select from a silcer, the weeks within that month are shown (can just be numbered or dated) within the chart and the totals are displayed. For example from above, for Area 1, week 5 of august will be shown tomorrow automatically? Then next month September, week 1 automatically calculate the totals with any invoices created then move onto week 2 after next friday. I originally thought that using CALCUATE based on the current week then -1 week, then -2 etc on the total, it would allow me to get the what I need but this would only allow the report to be run at the end of the month. Is there a way to base the calcualtion on the year week or month week. Apologises if this doesn't make too much sense, as mentioned, I've been looking at this for pretty much 6 hours straight and I've just kept going round in circles. Any help would be greatly appeciated! Thanks!
