I would like to add a second Values field to a line chart that already has an Axis: Date, Legend: Brand, and Values: $ Volume.
The second field would be $ Volume Year Ago and would be presented in the same color as the Brand but with a dashed line.

RE: Line Chart with multiple values fields and legends

Please add this feature! It would be super helpful especially with calculation groups. Unfortunately I can't add more than one value, making my calculation groups nearly useless in visualizations

'+1 for this feature.
I want to display results, but within these I want to have another breakdown.

RE: Line Chart with multiple values fields and legends

Agreed. You can do this in a PivotChart in Excel as per the below Twitter thread, so I'm perplexed why this wouldn't be supported in PowerBI.

RE: Line Chart with multiple values fields and legends

I am in desperate need of this feature. It is a basic feature that should be included in PBI.

RE: Line Chart with multiple values fields and legends

PBI is a great tool. We're started it using extensively but missing this simple feature.
Please, add it and make the tool even better.

RE: Line Chart with multiple values fields and legends

This appears to be one of the basics of any charting tools. If you cant do 2 values against time or any other dimension, thats a shame.
