We would like to have multiple y-axis on a chart, more than 2

Multiple y-axis for Cartesian charts is on our backlog. I don't have a timeline to share, but please keep voting. I'll update the idea once we have more information to share.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

Would love to have the option like second axis for values in charts (clustered). Really useful.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

Multiple axis for Y axis is a must if we need multiple variable analysis. Combination chart is not enough.
A combination chart bar and lines, each variable should have an independent scale

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

I am looking for an ability to create secondary axis on a line chart. i know this exists in combi chart (Line and clustered column chart) but for the numbers that we are reviewing i want it to be a dual line chart on both axes.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

This is my number one reason for not adopting PowerBI yet

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

Clustered column + line is not always elegant. Need to be able to have clustered column charts with different scales.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

Dual Y-axes should be enabled for all types of charts, not just combo bar and line charts. There are many scenarios where two series are best represented by lines (or both by bars) but have different units, or are at different scales.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

The secondary Y axis doesn't work at all!

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

Definitely need dual axis for line charts. E.g. when plotting altitude and speed of an aircraft, both dimensions are best represented by lines, but they're completely different measures and absolute values, and therefore require a dual axis graph...
