How to Use Power BI: How to display time-based data with Line Charts


How to do everything with Line Charts!

Hey there Reader,

Today I'm introducing a new post that compiles all our Line Chart posts (so far). I'll keep adding to it as new posts about how to do different things in Line Charts are added.

Line Charts are easy to make, and are AMAZING at showing trends over time, but they can be misused really easily (ever seen a line chart that looks like a mess of spaghetti?)

Currently, our Line Chart Post Series post has:

How to make a Line Chart

How to format a Line Chart (to make it easy for your viewers)

How to add Series Labels to a Line Chart (ditch your legends!)

How Power BI can fail you on Line Chart value labels (and how to fix it)

Not loving How To Use Power BI in your inbox anymore? No problem.
