Hot & Fresh: Format that Pie Chart!
Happy Thursday! Another week all about Pies on How To Use Power BI!
This week: Formatting Pie Charts
Last week we learned how to (and how NOT to) make Pie Charts in Power BI…
This week is about how to format pie charts to make them easiest for our audiences. This is ESSENTIAL formatting. The Pie Chart formatting defaults in Power BI are pretty awful, so you need to clean things up and make them useful Every Single Time you make/bake a pie chart.
Every Time. I’m not joking. :)
Next Week: Relationship Building!
Building a data relationship in Power BI (which allows you to use data from 2 or more sources in your reports/visuals) is a lot like a real relationship. Data in common, data that compliments one another, but also lots of differences that make the relationship interesting and useful.
We’ll learn the basics of Power BI data relationships next week. :)
Take care,
Joe.
