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

this is a basic function in Excel. I am shocked to see it is not available in Power BI. Please make it available.

RE: Line Chart with multiple values fields and legends

I'm a big fan of Power BI - but it's small things like this that are a setback. I'm sure it's more complicated to add than what I'm thinking but it's needed functionality for users.

RE: Line Chart with multiple values fields and legends

I found a workaround for my problem :). I concatenated the two columns (in my case kpi_name and site), and then added the concatenated column as my legend. Then I created 2 separate filters based on the 2 separate columns. So now I can choose the kpi_name from one filter and the corresponding site or all the sites from the site filter.
