Show distinct dates from facttable using filter (all)

Hello,

for instance I have a Facttable with dates not being distinct.

To count dates distincinctively I can use Distinctcount ( Table[Dates])

 

Is there a ways to count distinct via Countx and filter all? I want a measure which is not reacting to any filter and always 

count the total of distinct dates of a table.

 

Thank you very much in advance. 

Best.

    Hi,

    Once you create a measure you can edit interactions and stop any interaction with the measure.

    In that way it will not get affected by any filter.

     

    Thanks

      Hi Anonymous ,

      I understand what you mean. But thats on the level of visualization.

       

      I for myself have another purpose in mind. A measure which always display All distinct, and can be use as a measure inside other measures. The edit interaction is rather for visualization not reacting on filter selection. 

       

      Best.

    how about you create a separate date table and not keep any connection with the facttalble.
