Update 10/17: This is now in our upcoming roadmap and we will share more details in the coming months. Mo

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

Strongly support this suggestion. Multiple Y-axis in a line chart should be standard in any 2018 software packages. Please don't waste our time with inferior workarounds. Please make this happen ASAP.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

The custom visual does not work since it is outdated, the drill through does not work and the it is not being maintained,

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

Hi Amanda, thank you for the email with all the new features. However I wanted to know if there is a feature or visual that will cover more statistical analysis. If you can either work on or steer me in the direction for a Process Control Chart that contains the following, Control and Spec Limits along with 1,2 3,4,5,6 sigma and CpK, Std. Deviation, Control Limits, Spec Limits, Avg Distribution etc.

I found a thread regarding Process Control Chart Type that would be something that mfg would love to utilize, but it was only a blog and there has been zero progress in over a year. So i was hoping that this is something that you all are working on.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

How can this idea be "under review" for 3 years? Is very poor that this basic feature is not available yet

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

I would love to see this. I need a dual axes column chart. Seems like a pretty easy thing to implement.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

It's not easy to get people and departments in my organization to embrace a transition from excel to powerbi reporting when this basic functionality is missing. I can't even count the amount of shocked reactions I've encountered in the last year when I have to suggest a less than ideal workaround.

Please add this asap, it's been high on the suggestions list for over 3 years!

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

I also need it very much. So please add it as soon as possible. It would often save so much space and make things much clearer.
