We should be able to put two values and a legend on the same line chart.

RE: two values and legend on line chart

This is a serious limitation at the moment

RE: two values and legend on line chart

Something simple like being able to add a constant line based on a given measure I can specify (not only the limited choice existing at the moment in the Analytics tab)

RE: two values and legend on line chart

I'd like to see something like this as well. I build a lot of graphs that compare two different test suites to see how well they overlap each others coverage in testing our storage products. In order to do that, I typically have 4 items on my x-axis that split the tests into read and write tests, then whether the test was random or sequential IO, then the block size and queue depths used by the test. Each line on the chart reflects the MB/second of throughput of the product, and there is one line per test suite, thus enabling me to see the relative coverage of each test suite at a glance.

I cannot get Power BI to do this unless I want to do some drill-down method, which removes the 'at a glance' requirement.

RE: two values and legend on line chart

I would also like to be able to add as many values and legends as I want.

RE: two values and legend on line chart

I would ammend this: There should not be a limit to how many values or legend items there are. If I want two legend items and 3 measures in value, the legend should automatically compute the distinct combinations that exist, much as the way excel charting has done for years.
