add an indicator

[MP_123]

hi all,

is it any way to add an indiator (not KPI indicator)

for example in table - indicator to draw some lines in grrn according to an indicator,

or for example on graph - some points will be circle, some of them squares.

thanks!

Hi @MP_123,

According to your description, you want to add indicator to your Power BI report like the image below, right?

Based on my research, there is no such a functionally to achieve this requirement. The requirement can be done in SQL Server Reporting Services easily.

I'm not sure if I fully understand the request, mostly about the circle/square part. If you want to add an indicator like a static value to a chart/table, you can do that as a measure. I use this for creating targets, thresholds, etc. Something like:

Indicator = 10

You don't have to use any functions in your measure formulas for them to work, and measure above will show a 10 no matter where you put it.

You can also add a reference line to some visuals (under Reference Line section of the Format options), though that's not as transportable and universally changeable as using a single measure.
