Secondary axes are automatically managed by the system in some cases, making it problematic for report creators with no control over intervals, ticks, and other crucial components, limiting effectiveness of various types of analysis. It would be great if the secondary axis included comprehensive format settings so that greater control over displayed data is provided.

For line graphs it would be great to be able to change the axis using a slicer. Particularly when using the Play Axis as the Y-axis in a line chart does dynamically change, which is great when you look at it as an animation.

Would be great to have the option of dynamic axes on charts for better visualization of graphics.

RE: Epic idea: Advanced secondary axes

What about using parameterized / dynamic scaling where the upper / lower limits and interval step can be set via DAX formula based on measure(s) being plotted against either first or second y-axis?

Another option would be to allow use of parameter slicer where user could select upper/lower limits on vertical axes

I am trying to move others in the organization from Excel graphs to using Power BI but the biggest concern people have is that the charts do not look similar. One example is that they cannot manually choose the interval levels on the y-axis.

It would also be great to be able to change the axis scale interval resolution / gradation as well as the start and end points.
