Selecting a column from a selected value
Super User
Are you trying to dynamically select a column to display in a visual? If so, field parameters are a great option:

Or, are you trying to dynamically select a column's value for further use in your measure? It's worth noting that a calculated column can't recognize a slicer selection, so a measure is the only option.
I am trying to dynamically select a column to display in a visual. I clicked your link but for me there is no "Preview Features" in the options menu, so I can't do it.
Is there a way to do this with a measure instead of a calculated column? I want all the rows to display in a visual, not an aggregation.
