Secondary y-axis: calculated average, how not to display those categories in primary axis & legend

[akt]

I have created a measure to calculate a monthly average for years 2018 and 2019 that I would like to visualize on the secondary axis to compare to monthly counts for more current years (2020-2024) but I don't want the bars for those years (2018-2019) included in the legend/visualized on the graph. However if I filter to exclude those years, my average line also disappears. I have tried to use ALL() and REMOVEFILTERS() on both the counts and the average measures but no dice. I'm sure someone here has a better idea! Thank you!

Hi, @akt 

If you want not to display the values on the Line y-axis, you can turn off the display of data labels in visual >> Data label:

If the value you want to display is the value of your measure, rather than a specific month, try using the following DAX expression:

Average_2018_2019 = 
CALCULATE(
    AVERAGE(Table[Value]),
    FILTER(
        ALL(Table[Year]),
        Table[Year] IN {2018, 2019}
    )
)

If you don't want to display COUNT1819AVG in the legend, I haven't found any switch to turn off the line Y-axis in the legend. Here is a possible alternative:

Turn off the legend field in the original chart and use an independent legend visual, so that the COUNT1819AVG field is not displayed in the legend of the chart.
