Trying to slice a visual based off multiple columns
- Anonymous3 years ago
Hi Synik_PBI ,
Sorry, as far as I know, the newly generated field parameter is the text type, and the Y-axis in the line chart requires the numeric type, which will show blank when placed in.
You can do this in two ways:
Create a slicer table using Enter data, then use measure+switch():
1. Enter data.
2. Create measure.
Measure = SWITCH( SELECTEDVALUE('Slicer_Table'[Value]), "A",SUM('Table (2)'[A]), "B",SUM('Table (2)'[B]), "C",SUM('Table (2)'[C]), "D",SUM('Table (2)'[D]), "E",SUM('Table (2)'[E]), "F",SUM('Table (2)'[F]))3. Result.
You can also use Unpivot Columns in Power Query to convert ABCDEF columns to a single column, but this will change the format of the entire table.
1. Power Query -- Unpivot Columns .
2. Result:

Great solutions! Thanks so much!
I always forget about the power of unpivoting, I went with option #2 and it worked as expected.
