Visual that returns the number in a measure as separate symbols?

Struggling to explain what i mean, but is there a visual anywhere that would return a symbol or an image according to the number returned in a measure?

E.g. the measure returns 8 - this would be represented by 8 dots, or a single image repeated 8 times? I have decimals too, so an added bonus would be anything that might make sense in that context.

 

Thanks 🙂

Hi  @GlassShark1 ,

 

You could create a measure using "REPT" function instead of using a visual,see below:

Taking the following table for example:

v-kelly-msft_0-1608796514935.png

With a measure as below:

Measure = MAX('Table'[Column1])*2

Then create a measure as below:

Rept = REPT(MAX('Table'[Column2]),'Table'[Measure])

And you will see:

The symbols have been repeated by the measure value.

For the related .pbix file,pls see attached.

 

Best Regards,

Hi @GlassShark1 

In addition to using REPT, you can change the font in the visual to WingDings and use the symbols in that font.

you could try making a complementary table that have the possible result number listed, and a sharpoint or onedrive link of the iamgine you want it to display, set up the column as a url link and you are done (those image on the drive need to be setted as no credential needed for accesing them via web just in case), make a relantionshe between the result column and the id column for the images, and will work normal in a table visual you will get the imagine of the result.
