Gauge visual with multiple targets

Hi All,

 

Is it possible to have a gauge visual with two different sets of targets? E.g. "Plan", "Revised Plan"?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

I can't find any custom visual that meets your requirement.  Maybe you need to create two visuals:one for plan and the other one for Revised Plan.

Hello everyone,
I have the same problem, and I tried to stack two gauges like suggested by @egsiegel in his message, but the client need to modify the threshold time to times, so I thought that instead of a gauge there is another visual (like a bar char ecc.) in which I/he can put easily and manually thresholds/target values, visually "similar" to the gauge.

Any suggestions?

Hi all,

 

Did anyone find any solution to get 2 different targets as 2 different lines? Your help is highly appreciated.

I didn't find anything useful - there's an idea posted but it has virtually no votes (link below):

With enough votes it might get developed

Wasted 4 -5 hours tried every gauge chart ever available .... and even charticulator doesn't help..

 

Chat gpt was not able to answer this .. conversation went in circles..

Lets just pivot data and use stack bar chart 

 

Would be happy to recieve a satisfying solution.

I've just looked through 3 similar topics and found no solutions.

 

Why didn't you add several ticks to the gauge? It's obvious that there might be more than 1 target. Honestly I believe that whoever designs those visuals have never worked in a non-software company.

 

Instead you either propose very 'creative' solutions or suggest to add an idea which by the looks of things will not be realized in the near 5 years anyway.

I know I am late to this one, but wanted to post this solution:

I created 2 Gauge visuals with the same min and max values.

1st one has the Values and Target.  Do not display the target value (alignment issues) and shut the background off.

2nd should have only the second target set as the value and be 80% the size of the 1st.

set the colors as desired.

put the 1st visual on top of the 2nd and align centers.

group the 2 visuals

 

it should end up looking like this:

The Dial Gauge custom visual might be what you're looking for. it allows you to set Target and actual.

@Anonymous thank you for the suggestion but I believe that is more useful if you have a target range as opposed to two single point-value targets as I have?

Hi @v-deddai1-msft, thank you for checking. Yes that is currently what I am doing but it leads to redundancy as the "actual" value is repeated amongst different visuals. Thank you however.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

But It seems to be the only way for now.I also recommend you create an idea for it  in https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas to improve the power bi.
