Timeline Visual

Published 2016-11-23 by Kevin Feasel

Devin Knight looks at a new Power BI custom visual:

  • The Timeline is similar to the native slicer in Power BI but has several more customizations available.

  • Not surprising, this visual can only accept date values.

  • If you need to adjust the start date of the Timeline based on your works Fiscal Calendar that is possible in the format settings.

This is a pretty nice visual, but when I tried to use it, I remember it feeling a little limiting, particularly around drilling into date slices.
