Question

You have a matrix visual showing monthly revenue by product category. Management wants each revenue cell to display a horizontal bar whose length is proportional to the value, while still showing the numeric revenue text inside the same cell so users can read exact figures. What is the most efficient way to achieve this?

Accepted Answer

Apply conditional formatting of type 'Data bars' to the revenue field in the matrix values.

Answer

Add a background color conditional formatting rule based on the revenue value.

Answer

Replace the matrix with a clustered bar chart and remove the numeric labels.

Answer

Create a measure that returns a Unicode block-character string sized by value and place it beside the revenue.
