Now we start and end point in the axis, It would be great if we have Interval between the start and End value
For eg: 0 is my start and 100 is my End means , I explicitly what the interval is 9, so that I can see my axis drawn like 0,9,18,27...99.

RE: Add the axis interval in the charts

This idea dates back to 2016 and that just scares me. My colleague could not believe that you were not able to change axis intervals until I showed him this thread. Please ADD. MUST HAVE feature.

RE: Add the axis interval in the charts

This is pretty much the most basic aspect of any axis and the inability to set this can make it nearly impossible to use the basic Chart widget in certain cases. For example a y axis of the values 1-5 show 2 and 4, which does not really make it easy to read, 1, 3 and 5 tick marks work much better. This is a basic UX issue and really should be resolved by now.

This ability exists in Excel so it is odd that the same is not available in PowerBI.

I would like to see an extension of this where as in Excel there are Major and Minor settings for the tick marks also. This would allow us to have the intervals for numbering set to allow ease of readability while having the smaller tick marks to give a better scale between.

I would like to request to customize intervals on the axis in Power BI

RE: Add the axis interval in the charts

Set Custom Intervals in X and Y axis should be a standard functionality for effective development.

It is crucial to have customised visuals developed to meet user needs.


Please prioritise this functionality development - as it is basic set in Excel.....

Much needed software improvement!

RE: Add the axis interval in the charts

Why isn't this an option? It's an option in Excel, why not in Power BI? (I imagine it has to do with cross filtering, but still at least give us the option.)

RE: Add the axis interval in the charts

The lack of the this critical feature makes Power BI visualizations far inferior to competing software. Current state is unacceptable to the managers using these reports.
