Simple Gauge Chart Alternatives in Power BI

The Gauge Chart is not everyone's "go-to" visual in Power BI. But what if you want to show some kind of scoring value? What can we use?
Here, I show some simple alternatives using vertical and horizontal stacked bar charts, reference lines and a few little tricks to give a nice clean finish.

Gerard, is that a new intro I see 😍? That was nice. What tool are you using for that? Btw, great video as always man. #masterofdataviz

[@dganalysis]

Hi Hakeem, yes, new intro. I used to do a little work on Fiverr, and got talking to someone who was able to put this together for me. Got a few more in storage to add on future videos.
I think they used Adobe Premier

Hi there, thanks for sharing the video. 👍👍I noticed the floating window of 'Build a Visual' is really delicate. Can I find it in PowerBI desktop too or it's an extension? Thanks in advance for answering.

[@dganalysis]

It is available in the latest version of desktop. You may need to update, or download the latest version 👍

[@derekwu9349]

this is awesome. I see that you've split this out equally at .2 = what if I wanted it not evenly distributed? Like Q1 30: Q2: 50% Q3 75% and Q4 100%

[@dganalysis]

Yes, you would just have to adjust some of the numbers. The targets would be 0.3, 0.2, 0.25 and 0.25, which all add up to 1

[@fabiorangelwalter8192]

What formula did you use for the total percentage?
My PBI does not show the line format, only the ball format, triangle format, etc.

[@mohamadviekry2173]

Hey,can i see measure of top customer

[@dganalysis]

If you look at my channel, there is a scorecard video. All the measures will be in that video. I think there is a link to the model also.

[@mohamadviekry2173]

Thx bro

[@Avani_wonderland]

I don't have references line in format visual.

[@dganalysis]

Is your power bi desktop version up to date? And are you using 100% stacked chart?

[@udaniweerarathne88]

Its in the 'Analytics' pane with the section name 'Constant line'

[@arnoldmayamaya]
