Chart Recommendation - Combo Chart

I am trying to automate some charts which were once populated in excel. I have come across a combo chart in excel which is a mixture of a bar and scatter chart and after some research I don't believe it is possible to recreate in Qlicksense. Just wondering if anyone would know the next best chart which could replicate it or even two charts which would show a similar data structure. For my data I want to plot one material with up to 32 data values which I know may cause an issue as some charts have limits of the amount of values you can hold. Any guidance is much appreciated.

Hi, maybe QlikSense 'Distribution plot' could be used? As Point you define your y axis [y] dimension, X-axis as [x] dimension, Y-axis measure you can make avg([y]). In 'Presentation' menu change the look from Horizontal to Vertical and 'Show' 'points only'. Color 'by dimension'. And it should look similar to your excel graph.

Thanks for the suggestion, I have tried the distribution plot and it looks good but it only lets me place one value at a time on it. Is it possible to stack values on the Y axis or does it only deal with one value at a time.

@tomf122 you can try line chart to get such a visual.

You can get a result like this

In above example I have used

Dimension 1 - 'Distributor'

Dimension 2 - 'Title'

Measure - Any measure you can take

Change orientation and play with properties setting to achieve desired result
