I am trying to create a stacked column chart in Power BI desktop. Once I drag the stacked column chart from the visualization, it only shows options for X-Axis, Y-Axis, Legend, Small multiples, Tooltips.
But the values seems to be missing from the above list.
Any pointers will help.
Thanks
Y-Axis is the new Value field.

the image shows the stacked column chart visual in power bi
my requirement is I need the visual grouped according to the legend which is region in this case and the axis sorted by y axis
No, you can't group a stacked chart with the native visual. You can with custom visuals like Deneb though.
I am practicing using Power BI, doing EdEx course exercises. I ran into unexpected problem with "Value" option disappearing from visualization pane. First I thought that was due to the type of visuals I was using, but it is not the case. Course instructor has "axes" and "value" options for visuals like line and column charts, but in my case I only get x-axis, y-axis and legend options. How do I go about it?

I'm a newbie in Power BI and I'm now stuck with a visualization problem. I have an Excel table with columns about (1) the title of a news article and (2) the date when it was published. As seen on the screenshot from Excel, there are months on which nothing was published.
I need to make a stacked column chart in Power BI from it. First, the one I made shows only years, while I want to see months. Second, I'd like to see each month, including those that have the value of 0 (i.e. nothing was published on this month). Thus my aim is to have 48 month columns instead of my 4 columns for years. Thanks a lot in advance!
Initial data, Excel
The Power BI stacked column chart that I want to tweak
I assume you are using auto date/time in Power BI Desktop, for simplicity:
Create a new bar chart visualisation
Drag the Date column into the Axis field
The Date column should transform into a hierarchy - remove Quarter from this hierarchy
If the Date column does not show up as a hierarchy, right click Date in the Axis field and select Date Hierarchy
Drag the Title column into the Values field
Right click Date in the Axis field and tick Show Items With No Data
Click the visualisation in the canvas and press the button that looks like one arrow that splits into two arrows, to expand all down one level in the hierarchy
This should get you what you are after:
You can deselect Concatenate Labels for your X-axis to get this result.
I'm a geologist and trying to create a "Stratigraphic Column" to visualize the progress of Drilling Rig and I realized that Stacked Column Chart is suitable for that visualization.
Everything is perfect expect colors. Every lithology has their own color but PowerBI assign random colros to them. There is no any "Conditional Formatting" button in chart properties. That project is very critical for me, is there any code for that or is there any other tool to create something like Stratigraphic Column in PowerBI?
Thats what I want to create similar;
This is my final progress in PowerBI;
This is databse where I get data for chart;
Check if "Sankey Chart" helps.
As I see, there is a Source and Destination.

Want to add a horizontal line on the chart that can be editable/movable by the user.
See the orange line in below chart sample. Is it possible in Power BI? How can I achieve this?
For the standard set of visuals you can use a 'What if' measure and slicer combination to allow the user to set a line value.
You'll need to use the visual line and cluster column (or stacked column). Drag the items in as normal for the axis and columns, then select under the modelling tab 'New Parameter What if'
Set your Min/Max values
This will create a new Parameter table' with the following in it (You can rename all the objects:
This will add a slicer to the page, the values will be passed to a measure that can now be plotted on the visual. Drag the 'Parameter Value' measure to the Line Values axis. For example slicer set at '600'
Move the slicer and it will update the line, for example slicer set at '1000'
