During several presentations I get questions regarding the total of stacked columns. In the current situation you can select to label all the parts of the stacked column but no grand total. I would like to see the option to add a label to the Visuals which shows the total of the stacked column (this counts for values only). Ideally this total would deviate together with the drilldowns you select, so it stays interactive whatever filters you select or subsets you create on your dashboard.

RE: Totals in stacked column charts
Seems like such a simple quick win

'+1 for a basic, included feature in Excel that a "world class" BI tool should have built in
RE: Totals in stacked column charts
Come on PBI team! This is such a basic need. I was just trying to edit some of my hacked charts where I had to layer one chart on top of another to get the grand total. I'm surprised with all your releases this hasn't been include. I'm begging you, please implement!
RE: Totals in stacked column charts
This is incredible, we are still waiting a simple way to do this, may be you can add in the "Analytics Pane" the line "Total" just a suggest =/ thanks
RE: Totals in stacked column charts
It's egregious that this option still does not exist when every other BI tool makes it simple. Using the line work-around does not work as I need to use line to show a % figure
RE: Totals in stacked column charts
This idea is almost two years old, can we please do something about this? The obvious work around is a beating, and you're kind of out of luck if certain components of the stacked column are negative.
RE: Totals in stacked column charts
For stacked BAR (horizontal) charts too please! The combo workaround isn't available for these. Layering works, sort of, but is an awful way to have to do it.
