@@vizwiz Yes, this one is superior. Question... if I've got four different metrics, each with their own goal (not relative to the same "1")- how can we format to visually render similarly if we need to build them separately?

Hi Andy! This is extremely helpful. I have a doubt, in the butterfly chart ; for 2021, how do we get rid of the negative sign near to the labels ?

[@broname2557]

With this kind of tutorial you could do a speed run. JK. Actually it's a rare gem, great tutorial, amazing video, top notch step by step, and beautifuly execution. Just awesome

[@vizwiz]

Glad you liked it!

Hi Andy; thanks for all the tips! The negative mark labels in the butterfly chart bother me a little; I find it neater to edit the axis and set scale to "Reversed" ;)

[@vizwiz]

I should have formatted the axis to only show positives.

[@ba6_maistora]

Thank you for a fantastic tutorial, Andy! I am looking to add a reference line in the butterfly chart to highlight the variance between the two sides. Is this possible? I would really appreciate your expertise to see if this is worth exploring further.

[@vizwiz]

Definitely possible

[@tarasnavakhatska61]

Thanks for the feedback. Pause along the way if it's too fast. 👍🏻

[@huytruong2026]

Hi Andy, why is there no tooltip for the RANDOM() function in the calculation window?

[@grudajeffrey6228]

Great video. Can you create one for tables? Explain how to get rid of the "abc", set column sizes, make column titles, how to make an all text table, ....

[@vizwiz]

I doubt I will ever create a video on tables since I'm trying to move people away from them.
