View rows counted in CountX function

Hi all, I have a measure which counts the number or rows in a table, depending on a condition e.g.

COUNTX(

    TableA,

     IF(

        AND(

            TableA[Start Date] <= [Month End],

             ISBLANK(TableA[End Date]) || TableA[End Date] >= [Month Start]

         ),

        TableA[ID]

    )
)

 

These results are then shown on a line graph, with month on the x axis.

 

I would like to visualise the rows that have been counted in a table, so I can see further details on the counted rows.

 

Drill though does not work because the rows counted for a specific month do not necessarily fall within that month.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!

    Create a new measure like 

    Is Visible = IF( 
SELECTEDVALUE('TableA'[Start Date]) <= [Month End] &&
( SELECTEDVALUE('TableA'[End Date]) >= [Month Start] || ISBLANK(SELECTEDVALUE('TableA'[End Date])),
1)

    then use that as a filter on your table visual to only show rows when the value is 1

    Hi johnt75,
    Thanks for the response. I'll have a look into this. Will let you know how I get on.

    Hi, I tried your suggestion out. I can't get it to work as a filter. But if I put the new measure in a table along with the other fields I want to see, it seems to work ok then. I'm not too sure why that is... but anyway, it's better than I had before, so thanks.
