help with a visual in one of the sample solutions

[Anonymous]

By going to the Public Sector Industry solution example at https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/industries/public-sector, there is a green box with what I assume are measures for each country. If you select a country, the values shift accordingly. I want to emulate this, but I can't figure out how they did that.

What I see in the sample is: two columns, right-aligned first column, and centered values in the second column. The visuals I've tested (card, multi-row card, table, and matrix) either do not have left-aligned label capabilities, or I can't get row headers to show. I was thinking just a text box for each label and a card visual for the value, but I can't get them to line up as nicely as the visual. Any insight as to how the sample is accomplishing this?

Hi @Anonymous,

I believe that what this visual is actual a several aggreagion of:
- 3 card - values in the right that update accordingly to the selections
- 3 text visual - that allow you to customize colour, alignement, bold, ...
- 1 square shape - placed behind the other visuals gives you the background

I figured as much, but was hoping there was something more elegant. The text visuals and the card visual are hard to line up horizontally just right. Thanks.

Hi @Anonymous,

As I tested, card visual and line up, and you can set the data, card outline using the hammer button.



For text visual, it refers to text box? You can set text right/left/middle(highlighted in red line) aligned to line up.
