The Month Total Bar feature allows users to add a progress bar that visually represents the month’s total values in both Calendar Week and Month Mode. This feature is particularly useful for tracking progress and understanding how individual month values contribute to the overall total.

Add Data fields for Date Filter and ensure a measure is added in the others section.
In the Format pane, navigate to the Date Filter section.
Set the Selection Style to Calendar.
Under the Calendar Section, select the Calendar Mode as either Month or Week.
Once the mode is selected, a toggle labeled Month Total Bar will appear. Enable this toggle to activate the Month Total Bar feature.


Once enabled a bar showing the measure values for the specific month is represented as bar. The bar appears in
Week Mode: The total bar will appear near each month on the calendar, visually indicating the total for that month.
Month Mode:
When Rotate Layout is off, the Month Total Bar will be displayed on the right side of the calendar.
When Rotate Layout is on, the Month Total Bar will appear below the calendar.

Color Customization:
By default, the color of the Month Total Bar is derived from the Heatmap colors. To customize the color, navigate to the Heatmap Section in the format pane, where you can adjust color options as per your preference.
The Month Total Bar is calculated based on the measure values of the first measure added in the Others section.
