I have a dual axis line chart that shows the number of planned hours vs worked hours through time (week number). Even though they are both Hours, I had to create a second axis for worked so that I get both of them displayed on the same chart.
But as you see in the picture, they do not quite show the correct scales (Worked hours is in thousands (0K, 2k, 4k, etc) while planned hours is in singles (0, 200, 400).
How can I edit my chart so they both show the same scale?
P.S. As long as I get both of these measures on the same chart, I really don't mind skipping the dual axis part. In fact, if both measures have the same scale I don't understand why one should create dual axis.
You should be able to just right click on the axis on the left and in the menu there should be an option to "synchronize axis". Select this and it will sync the two axes.
You can then hide the axis on the right to make it appear like a regular line graph and not a dual axis. To do this right click on the axis and uncheck the "show header" option.

Trying to make a cute little dual axis line and bar chart, time is continuous on x axis, value on y axis. For some visual flair (formatting still being worked on) I wanted to make banded columns to show months, which are not calendar months (454 system) and are therefore variable lengths of time.
I got it functionally looking how I wanted to on the worksheet. When dragged to a dashboard, even after a ridiculous amount of resizing, I get these weird lines. When I change the size of it, the lines change places.
Anyone have tips on getting these two graphs to look the same?

I have two measures, one is the actual the other is the total. I want to create a bar chart of the totals with the actual overlaid as a line. Why are they separate and not combined in my visual? I can't seem to combine them.
The missing step is to specify the measure you want on the dual axis. On the Rows shelf, right-click on the Balance Growth measure. Select the menu option for Dual Axis. That will make the dual axis chart and also give you a menu option for synchronizing the axis if you would like.

This link explains how to create dual axis on tableau so charts look like this
but when I try to re-create this, all I get is the below. Where do I right click to select "Synchronize Axis"
Drag the [Curve] pill to the right side of the bar chart. You'll see a black dotted line appear where the axis ought to be. Drop the pill, and a second axis will appear. (Equivalently, right click on either measure on the rows shelf and check Dual Axis.)
Right click on that new axis and click "Synchronize Axis".
In rows where there are two variables in between SUM(Number of Records) and curve Right-click between them you will get one option as Dual Axis .when you will click on that you will get desired result.
[Righclick between Sum(Number of Records) and curve]
Do as describe in image
I have created a chart with 2 axes that acts as a panel chart (see image)
As a panel chart I only want to show the portions of the relevant y-axes to the chart next to them. For example, for the right-most y-axis I used a custom number format to exclude anything less than 0:
_(* #,##0_);_("";_(* 0??_);_(#_)
But for the left most y-axis, I'm stuck. I want to show -400 to positive 400. I've tried 2 different options, but neither is producing the desired effect.
[<0](#,##0);[>500000000]"";#,##0_)
[<0](#,##0);[<500000000]#,##0_);""
Here is the result I'm looking for:
I learned something new today (and a bit weird) regarding formats and chart axes
After some experimenting, this is what I ended up using:
[White][>500]_(#,##0_);(#,##0);0;
The odd part: When you change the Display Units of the axis (for me, millions), then the formatting no longer recognizes the original amount (500,000,000).
Once I figured that out, I was able to work out the solution.
I'm trying to evaluate 2 reporting tools, SQL reporting and Telerik reporting, One of the thing my report should create are some charts. Here comes my problem. I would like to get a line chart that looks like this one created on my RDLC that is how I need it.
With Telerik I almost got the same graph but I still have some problems.
I can't eliminate the margins on the X axis (blue squares)
I can't find how to manually set the X axis interval (green square), searching on forums somebody sais that changing the scale property to DateTime Scale (It crashes my designer)
It is possible to move the axis with the ticks at the bottom of the chart (purple square) like it is on the rdlc chart?
At the end I got an answer on the telerik forum how to set the properties I was missing, if somebody is facing a similar problem the solution can be found here
Chart Xaxis Margin and label interval
The problem in the purple square is solved by selecting the Y axis, from the scale property select CrossAxisPosition, add an element to the collection and set the position atminimum.
