Right now we can only use trend lines for continuous values in the x axis. It would be great if a categorical value could also be used, such as month name.

RE: Ability to use Trend Line with Categorical Values in X-axis
Agree that this is required functionality: It doesn't make sense for the trend line to only be available with a Continuous X-Axis.

RE: Ability to use Trend Line with Categorical Values in X-axis
MS Power BI needs to include the same trend line functionality offered in MS Excel.
RE: Ability to use Trend Line with Categorical Values in X-axis

RE: Ability to use Trend Line with Categorical Values in X-axis
must have, PowerBI will never catch on when the actual visualizations are still stuck in shareware mode
RE: Ability to use Trend Line with Categorical Values in X-axis
this is really a must have, because at the moment i don't see the data that i want on the X-Axis if i have a continious graph with trendline.
RE: Ability to use Trend Line with Categorical Values in X-axis
This would actually be useful - as long as it's used correctly.
eg. Your x-axis is a categorical day-of-the-month and y-axis is number of jobs performed, a trend line might show that over time you tend to be busier towards the end of month.
Now you can adjust your staff roster, or distribute the jobs more evenly, or whatever is best for your business.
