ISFILTERED not working

RameshPachunuri — Fri, 20 Dec 2019 07:41:46 GMT

I want to display the values based on filter on column. I am using ISFILTERED but is it not working as expected. Can someone help on this issue?
Suppose we have a table as shown below and we have column called Filter where it is showing the values based on filter on Column2. When ever we filtered value on Column2 then it should show values on Filter column as 1 if not show the values as 2. But it is not reflecting. I am not sure what I am missing here.

Without Filter:

With Filter:

Hi @RameshPachunri,

Calculated columns are only calculated on data load or refresh. Once loaded they are static values. To achieve what you want you will need to use measures.

Have a great day.
