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

It should definitely have been done.The competition (SAS VA) has it for years and as we are currently in proces of a transition with all our work to the PowerBI, it has actually made us think if it's a good move, to lack such a basic feature. Not a good move from PR point of view.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

It is so terribly frustrating to not have this very basic charting capability in a product that has gone through hundreds of iterations...

Come on PBI team.., You have managed to add so many great features over the year. This cannot be that hard and it should definitely talk this long!!!

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

Due to line charts not having the ability to add multiple axis to lines charts I have several clients that have chosen to go with Spotfire or Tableau. Please hurry this along so I can switch them over as I prefer dax 100x more

Hi PowerBi Team/Microsoft Team,
It would be better if this feature will come soon in upcoming updates.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

Definitely need multiple y-axis on line and other charts. How much longer we need to wait (its almost 5 years since the idea was shared and 6 months in backlog)

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

We also need them to be for Combination (line and bar) Charts as well. You guys need to add most of the customisation functionalities from excel and most importantly from other BI tools.
