RE: add skyline chart

Skyline charts are very popular in the engineering & construction industry. Currently, it seems, we can chart something similar using the stacked column chart in Power BI but there are limitations (as far as I can see) - Data Labels and forecast dates cannot be shown within each stacked bar. If Power Bi can implement a skyline chart it would be really nice and appreciated very much in the EPC Industry.

Thanks,
Raj

RE: add skyline chart

That would be great, I have been doing that manually and it is such a waste of time, I think having that in power BI saves a lot of time.
