Hey MFelix 

Very nice try, but unfortunately it could not work in any way, because in my real dataset I have over 10mln entries and some of them are repeating. Any other solution with Dax that could work?
I have a solution where I create a separate table from all of these answers and it works just fine, but it consumes space for storing a copy of data in a separate table.
Thanks for helping.
Cheers
Ignas

Hi ignas ,

 

Not aware that you had such a big database, it was not clear on your message.

 

In my example it is also creating an additional table on the model, because looking at interactions between the visuals if they are from the same table they will filter out the information so you are being a victim of the setup of the data.

 

If you have a single table and you have a slicer and a chart when you apply filter on the slicer the corresponding visual will have the same filter you cannot dissociate one from the other since they are within the same table.

 

Regards,

MFelix

    hi,

     

    maybe you can create another visual for "ddddd" filter alone, and hide the "ddddd" option from the slicer.

    Create this measure:

    Measure = CALCULATE(COUNT(Survey[RecipientID]), Survey[Answer] = "ddddd")

    to do the visual filter for "ddddd" table.

    unlink the visual interaction between slicer and "ddddd" table.
