Show legend when there is one dimension in Line chart

Hi

I have a line chart in which there is one dimension(Date) and two expressions(Endorsement/Production) conditionally, then how would I show Endorsement/Production as a legend in my chart.

Please help.

Thanks

HI Saurabh..

Normally you dont have an option to show the legend for such conditional expression however, there is an workaround...

you can use a dummy dimension.. but make sure you don't use any actual field as dimension.

like in your case create 2 calculated dimensions

='Endorsement' , using the enable condition for Dimension same as the enable condition of expression , and label as something you want as title of you legend ..

and

='Production'  same as was done for first dummy dimension/

This should solve your case

Hi,

I'm not quite sure about your requirements, but one solution could be:

Instead of switching expressions with a button/variable, you can also combine independent expressions into one synthetic dimension using the valuelist() function:
