It should be possible to have an "invert axis values" when defining Charts. In some cases, let's say School grades, the grade 1 is the best and 6 is fail. in this case, I would like to show an y-axis starting on 6 and ending on 0.

The ability to invert the Y axis exists today within the format settings.

RE: Invert axis display values

There is an alternative solution idea.
1)Multiply the original number by -1 to create a new measure
2)Apply a "custom" format. For example, -#;#;0

Any update? Using ranking data need 1 to be up the top. This is basic functionality and should have been implemented in the first place. Shame on you for assuming data only goes one way.

RE: Invert axis display values

you can invert your measure:
Create new measure and use current measure multiply (-1)

Think of star magnitudes, where the brightest have even negative values. One could of course (-1) them, but then the measure is plain wrong.
