Hey Lawrance,

 

Based on my understanding of "Dont Summarize" in Power BI I would say you want to prevent the automatic grouping of data in a bar chart. Could you confirm whether this is the case?

 

If this is the case I suggest creating a new column which concatenates the index (key) of the row of the dimension with the dimension name itself. 

 

Example:

 

Index, Name, City, Name_Index

1, Thomas, London, Thomas_1

2, Thomas, Manchester, Thomas_2

 

If this is not what you meant then I suggest reading this other post: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Option-to-choose-quot-Don-t-Summarize-quot-Missing-quot-Do-...
