Interactive Chart - Secondary Axis/Data Labels

I am working on building a chart from 2 different data sets that would share the same X axis. Is there a way to do this? I have attached a photo of my chart, as well as an Excel example of what I would like it to look like.  What I am looking to do is have the line values on the Y axis on the right, and the bar chart values on the Y axis on the left. Also, I am wondering if it is possible to add the data labels?

Hi @michaelhanggi,

 

Thank you for posting your question to the Community. Unfortunately, at this time this functionality does not exist. However, it is something that is on the radar of our developers as an enhancement in the future. If you wouldn't mind, please post this idea to the Ideas page so it gets the necessary visibility to our developers and so that other users with the same feature request can star your post to show the interest by our user base.

 

Thank you!

Good afternoon,

 

I would also appreciate the addition of this feature to the interactive chart tool. Overall, I like the new charting tools (I only just upgraded to the version with the charting too changes a little over a week ago). But this is a missing function that I had been using when building reports until now.

 

Thanks!

Emma

I saw this in the last email for the update to 2019.3:

I updated to the latest version, and can't figure out how to add the other y-axis. Any help is appreciated.

For those of you following this thread, in 19.3 Designer release, users are now able to add labels to charts. You will find it on the Style>Layer page.

Also there is now an option to use the secondary y-axis, please refer to the following screenshot.

Please download the latest 19.3 release and let us know how you like this functionality.

This Secondary Y-Axis is a great feature, but I can't figure out how to get the base of the 2 Y-axis's to align vertically. Seems like an offset issue. I've tried playing around with all the settings, but can't them to align.

 

See below for visual.
