Unable to reference LINESTX table output using SELECTCOLUMN
UPDATE: sample file here. Look at the DAX Query View. I'm developing a calculation item, but using the DAX Query View for testing purposes.

Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?
It appears there is a bug in the DAX editor. When I view the calculation item in Tabular Editor, it doesn't contain an error. See if you can use the calculation item successfully.

VAR slope = SELECTCOLUMNS ( line, "Slope1", [Slope1] )- sean_cochranResolver I
