Is there a way to insert text in table shape through copy/paste from e.g. excel rather than editing row by row? - draw.io

I'd like to create in draw.io a table shape with many rows with containing the text of a range of cells in MS Excel. Other than handwriting each row text, is there a way to copy paste directly all the cell values?

Power BI - formatting matrix table column headers

Team,
Is it possible to format the column headers on a matrix table to appear at the bottom instead of the top? So instead, the values (remote, possible, likely) would appear on the bottom like a chart?
You could do this little work around:
Make the Column Header text white so that it doesn't appear on the page.
Make text boxes for each column and put them on the bottom of the matrix.

Is there a better way to plot data on a bar chart in Power Bi?

I am working with an imported data set from Excel, for each row there is a volume for each year 2020-2030 as an individual column.
Trying to plot the sum of each column 2020-2030 in a bar chart however this does not display as expected. See attached images. Already tried adding the data to the Axis field but this does not work.
The goal is to have a plot with years 2020-2030 on X-Axis and total volume on Y-Axis, then clicking on an individual year will then filter related plots by year. So far I can only sort the data in the opposite direction clicking on a category to see the volume for a single year.
Looking for help on how to plot the data specifically and then how to link this plot to other visuals in the report.

Layout of Data
You will need to unpivot your data in m-query editor. Click on "transform-data". Select the table your data is on. Click the transform TAB. Select the year columns and click unpivot.
Now you get a table with many more rows wtih data like CY 2020, CY 2021 etc
You need to convert this to a number. you can do this by adding a column which picks up the 4 right chars and converts it to number:
Goto tab "Add Column", click Custom Column. Give column name and type:
Number.FromText(Text.End([YourColumnwiththeCY2020],4))
To make it even better, delete the column you had created during the unpivot. On this table you can do the graph representations..
apply and close to go back to your dashboard
Use unpivot in PowerQuery (M) to turn the columns for each date in to a single column containing the period with values (CY-2020, CY-2021, CY-2022 etc). You can remove the CY- and turn this in to an integer column, or convert it to a date, e.g. 1/1/2020. This will plot far better on your chart as an axis as opposed to the multi values approach in you screen shots.
See a blog post from Radacad here that provides a how to.

How to create custom legends in Power bi?

I just need to move my legends in top left corner. But there is no option for that.
So is any way I can create maybe a table with one column color shape and the other column the description?
Something like that:
And then just use it as Legends for the chart?
Depending on your visual you have under the format tab a legend option. For example if you use a pie chart you can toggle the legend on or off. Also you can position the legend (top, top left, bottom, etc...).
The second way is to use a custom visual with your desired needs.
And the third way is, like you already stated, a table which acts as legend. Either you enter your legend text in a separate table manually or you use a query. For example a distinct count to get the unique values.

Displaying labels for grouped datasets in ChartJS clustered column graph

Not sure how to even define this question, so bear with me!
First, I want to display multiple unrelated datasets, side by side.
Second, for each dataset, I'd like to have column-based lables (default for each column), then an overall "grouped" label for the dataset.
I can "fake" the appearance of this chart by entering a "zero" column entry, creating the gap between the "datasets" I have (even though in ChartJS is just one dataset).
The text line one is default behaviour with ChartJS to display the column label. However getting a "grouped" label to appear is beating me! What I've ended up doing is generating the chart label-less, then doing some funky HTML hacks to get the labels back with the grouped text I need. This approach is not scalable.
Can anyone point me in the right direction for this? Doesn't have to be ChartJS powered.

Can we hide 1/2 columns while displaying wxtreelistctrl?

I am using wxtreelistctrl to construct a tree and I want to store 4 columns in it, but while displaying I want to display only 2 columns. Is there any way I can do this?
With wxTreeListCtrl this is not directly supported, but you could set column width to 0 as a quick and dirty hack.
With wxDataViewCtrl itself, you can perfectly well show just some of the columns of your wxDataViewModel in the GUI control.
