Slicer
Hi Masters,
I have a grpah with multiple lines created by dax with each data columns like below.
Now what i want is having a slicer of each lines. I want to show one line in the graph using the slicer.
is it possible? if so please help me out..
@colourfullife
Yes, it is possible. Since you have a measure for each line in the graph, create a table using the Enter Data option on the Home ribbon. Enter All the measure names that you use in the charts. Insert a slicer and drop the measure names.
Modify each measure to check if the particular measure is selected in white, this way you can select what to display on the chart.
You can even select multiple measures.You can download the file : https://1drv.ms/u/s!AmoScH5srsIYgYYwi9h4WbIw8meNxw?e=cRbXdT

Modify each measure to include the condition to show the selected measure. Check my file and you will understand how it works.

Anonymous , This one is tricky.
if the line is because of legend, create a slicer on the legend
So you need control multiple lines with the slicer
line 1 measure =
var _max =maxx(Filter(allselected(Slicer[value]),Slicer[value] ="Line1"), [Value])
return
if(_max = null , blank(), [measure])line 2 measure =
var _max =maxx(Filter(allselected(Slicer[value]),Slicer[value] ="Line2"), [Value])
return
if(_max = null , blank(), [measure])if need one line at a time , refer

Here is one way of doing this.
1) create a new table with the names of your measures by selecting the "Enter Data" option in the Home tab in the ribbon. For my example I'm working with 4 measures, so here is my new table (I've called it 'Slicer by measure'):
2) now create a new measure which will deliver the measure based on the selection made in the new slicer:
Selected Measure by Slicer = SWITCH(TRUE(), SELECTEDVALUE('Slicer by measure'[Name Measure]) IN {"Sales for 1A"}, [Sales for 1A], SELECTEDVALUE('Slicer by measure'[Name Measure]) IN {"Sales for 2B"}, [Sales for 2B], SELECTEDVALUE('Slicer by measure'[Name Measure]) IN {"Sales for 3C"}, [Sales for 3C], [Sales for 4D])3) Create you line chart using this last measure, [Selected Meaure by Slicer], add the slicer to the page, and you get this:
