Line disappears when column legend is used (Stacked column line report) - powerbi

I have report where I wanna show 11 Bins where allegations are counted to the different bins. As well I wanna show a limit line.
Like here:
But when I show how often an allegation is in a bin (using column legend) then my limit line is only shown when there are allegations in a bin.
Like here:
I have no idea how I can show the whole limit line from bin 1 - 11.
Maybe there is another to show such limit line.
Btw. How can I define that each bin is numbered on x-axis?
Thanks in advance

Sometimes you can see the forest for the trees.
After I switched from clustered columns/lines to clustered columns everything went as desired.

Excel formula that checks the text of a specific column and the text of a specific row and returns the data listed in the table

I am trying to display the outcome scores on one Excel sheet into another Excel sheet based on the outcome name and course.
If the text in Sheet1!C2=communication and Sheet1!E2=Comm 2010, then display Sheet1!D2 on Sheet2!B3.
If the text in Sheet1!C4=information* and Sheet1!E4=Commm 3000, then display Sheet1!1D4 on Sheet2!C5.
Need to be able to use Wildcard when checking the text.
If the text in Sheet1!C6=communication and Sheet1!E6=Comm2010, but there is no number in Sheet1!D6, leave Sheet2!B5 blank
I have played around with a few different IF AND formulas, but I can't get the data displayed correctly.
Right now, I am building a pivot table from the data in Sheet1, then taking the table and formatting it to match the table on Sheet1 then using =IF(Pivot!C7="","",Pivot!C7). This works, but building a pivot table for each student and then formatting it to match Sheet1 is a time drain.
I'm really hoping there is a better way to do this.
Thank you!
Since you are compiling outcomes on a per-student basis and not in total it is safe to use the SUMPRODUCT() function:
The formula below is used in B3
=SUMPRODUCT((Sheet1!$E$2:$E$6=Sheet2!B$1)*(Sheet1!$C$2:$C$6=Sheet2!$A3)*(Sheet1!$D$2:$D$6))
and can be copied across and down throughout B3:C4
The formula used in B5 is different, because of the 'wildcard criterion'
=SUMPRODUCT((Sheet1!$E$2:$E$6=Sheet2!B$1)*(LEFT(Sheet1!$C$2:$C$6,11)="Information")*(Sheet1!$D$2:$D$6))
(unless you are using Microsoft 365, having the formula directly suppress 0 values essentially entails doubling it in length so, as an alternative, given the small output range, a custom-number format has been implemented, which effectively doesn't display 0 in a cell where that is the formula result)

Comparing arrays using IF - How to get rid of empty spaces in final result?

I have 2 columns in Sheet 1 (named Projects), "Projects" in column A and "Status" in column B. The number of rows is dynamic.
In Sheet 2, I want to extract the projects that meet a certain string criteria and populate a table. For example, if the Status is "Operating", take the project name in column A for that row and put it in a table.
I tried =IF(Projects!B1:B="Operating",Projects!A1:A,"") but it returns the names of the projects in the same row position as in Sheet 1. So if there is a 2 row gap in Sheet 1 between two operating projects, it keeps the 2 row gap in Sheet 2.
How do I get rid of the gaps?
There are some ways to accomplish this.
First solution - based on code you have provided
Your code: =IF(Projects!B1:B="Operating",Projects!A1:A,"")
After some tweaks (working):
=FILTER(
ArrayFormula(IF(Projects!B1:B="Operating",Projects!A1:A,"")),
ArrayFormula(IF(Projects!B1:B="Operating",Projects!A1:A,""))<>""
)
As a bonus - you need this code only in one cell
Picture:
Second solution (elegant and fast one)
You need only this:
=QUERY(Projects!A1:B,"select A where B='Operating'")

PowerBI: Last 3 Non Blank Values from column

I have a table where I get the status of the employees tasks day by day.
As in below image I get the values(Confidential, so just entered dummy data).
Then I did unpivoted the dates column and made a copy of that and split with space so that I can get the date value.
Here I would like to show the last 3 commented values in a table visualization for each task.
Like as in above image, if the 5/31/2017 value is not available, then it should get the values of 5/29/2017 plan, 5/29/2017 actual, 5/30/2017 plan values i.e nothing but the last 3 non blank values.
Any suggestions please.

I think i got the solution.
I did mentioned in Top N filtering of visual level filter of fields.
And it worked for me.
Thanks for the hint #user5226582

Is there an absolute column limit for Google's Charts?

I have finally gotten a column chart working for my data set. However, it only outputs fifteen columns, and the data set has 36 columns. It will output fifteen columns (or less if I limit the set to only items that are non-zero...but my boss wants all of the data shown) no matter what width the graph is set to.
Is there an absolute hard-coded column limit for graphs made by Google's Charts API, and if not, is there a way I can tell the graph to output everything?
I've just run into this myself, almost 7 years after the original problem report. Columns representing the right-side of my data are being silently un-drawn.
Let's look at the big picture. Somebody provides a charting library. They should be expected to show the data as best they can. In the case of a column table, that would be to show the first and last columns, and then choose which intermediate columns to show based on an algorithm that takes available pixels into account. It would then let the user zoom in to see the full set of columns within the selected range. This gives the developer using the chart the freedom to show an unlimited amount of data and not have to worry that someday columns at the end are simply not drawn.
Google is already choosing to not print some of the column labels due to space constraints, so they're already halfway to understanding the big picture.
Nowhere in the documentation does it explain this truncation of columns due to space constraints, or for any other chart type that I've seen. But you sure can choose your background colors in great levels of detail.
If I had known this restriction going in, I would have chosen a different chart package and not wasted my time. My choices now are to break my "Lifetime" data into yearly graphs that fit in the available space, which is clunky as hell, or migrate to a different chart package. Thanks Google. :^(
P.S. I tried to post this as a comment to the OP, but after using SO for years I don't have enough points...

Excel columns made up of different merged cells

I'm trying to tidy up a sheet with the following problem, and would appreciate any advice.
My sheet has 7 "master columns" and about 4000 rows. It was compiled by converting a load of PDF documents.
The master columns are made up of merged minor columns, but at various parts of the data, the minor columns that make up each master column are different.
eg The first master column is made up of merged columns A-H for the first 30 rows, but for the next 25 rows it's made up of merged columns A-G etc.
As I said, overall there are still the same 7 master columns from top to bottom, but the merging is different throughout...
Can anyone think of a way to fix this without doing it all manually?
Copy your horrible spreadsheet into Word with Home > Clipboard – Paste, Paste Special, Unformatted Text and replace ^t^t with ^t. Replace All repeatedly, until Word has completed its search of the document and has made 0 replacements. Copy back in to Excel.
This is not tested on your image so there might be some issues – perhaps column misalignments (where even Word’s limited regex may help to add back tabs where suitable). The result should be no merged cells – mind you someone on SE described these along the lines of “A creation of the Devil to test us beyond endurance” (ie best avoided).
Try selecting the full document and click unmerge button from the ribbon.
As per the screen shot you provided, you can select all and unmerge but getting the corresponding fields in order might be challenging.
