Altering Line chart display

[VinayakKarne]

Hi Team,

I am currently trying to display the table data based on the summation of amount of months based on year and type. The data is need to be displayed on Line chart. The chart is updated based on the filter "Type". But here i need to display the data in chart such a manner that when none is selected in filter or both the type is selected then the amount must be subtracted based on types and reflected on chart. When only one is selected then summation must be reflected based on Filter "Type". Below is sample data.

The chart is line chart and data to be displayed in this manner as shown below. It should have the verticle line too.

If giver is selected then summation of month is displayed for giver only. Similarly for Reciever also. But when none is selected or both is selected then the data should be displayed as (Summation of reciever) - (Summation of Giver).

Hi @VinayakKarne ,

To get both gridline you should turn on gridlines option under X axis and Y axis as well

for getting value of based on your selection create a measure as below (considering your value summation value would be in one column, for easier calculation):

Measure =

var rec = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Column1]), 'Table'[Type] = "Reciever")

var giv = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Column1]), 'Table'[Type] = "Giver")

return

If(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Type])="Giver",giv, IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Type])="Reciever", rec, rec-giv))

let me know if it helps.

Thank You,

Hi Washivale, There is no option under x axis for grid lines. 

Also since there are 12 months so how couldi differentiate them while summation in one measure based on above method.

It would be easier for me if you could show me some examples.

Thanks for reply.

Hi @VinayakKarne ,

Ahhh sorry, Vertical gridlines are not supported for text axis, it is supported for numerical axis only.

for getting your values in one column, you should unpivot your data using Unpivot option under edit query - transform section.

select all months and click unpivot option.

Hi Washivale,

Thanks for reply. Yes we can bring the data in single column but the problem is how we are going to make final table column data based on above measure i.e for individual month and displaying in the line chart. It would be more easy for me to understand if you could show me a sample of 2 or 3 entries.

Thanks

Hi @VinayakKarne ,

I have created dummy data, below are my numbers from initial table

Initial Table

Below is the snapshot of data post Unpivot on Month Name Columns, Post Unpivot i have renamed Attribute column to Month.

Table post Unpivot

Created a measure as suggested earlier.

Measure for calculation

create a table with Month names and Index to sort your graph by Month for sorting purpose, create relationship between newely created table with data table on Month

January	1
February	2
March	3
April	4
May	5
June	6
July	7
August	8
September	9
October	10
November	11
December	12

below is the line chart with no selection on Type slicer

Visual with No Type Selection

Visual with Giver Selection

screenshot with Reciever selection on slicer.Visual with Reciever Selection

I hope this will help you in resolving your issue.

Thank You,
