Right now all the charts supports only one y axis. There should be a support for secondary axis as well.

RE: Ability to add a secondary axis to a chart

I need this ability too, shocked that this is not already available on line charts...

Share the same thoughts as others, why this idea is marked as COMPLETED.
Customer is asking the second Y axis for the line chart which can be done in Excel.
Why cannot we have this feature in PowerBI?
Please consider reopen this one. Thanks

RE: Ability to add a secondary axis to a chart

I would also like to add a second Y axis to a line chart, are there any plans to add this feature?

RE: Ability to add a secondary axis to a chart

This should not be closed. Most charts do not allow a secondary y axis.

RE: Ability to add a secondary axis to a chart

now it automatically decides to add secondary y-axis to combo chart, with no way to turn it off!

RE: Ability to add a secondary axis to a chart

As with Excel, the ability to plot two y-axis values within the same chart type would be enormously helpful (even essential in what I would like to roll out for our product). Combining column and line charts does work in some cases to show multiple values in a single chart, but in other cases this is unworkable or looks kludgey.

RE: Ability to add a secondary axis to a chart

After latest update in May 2016, I have not been able to edit details for secondary axis.

RE: Ability to add a secondary axis to a chart

I don't want a stacked column with my combo chart. Can you enable a secondary axis on "Line and Clustered Column Chart"?
