Display selected filter on this visual value per individual graph.
- 8 months ago
Hi ADH_24,
You can display the selected filter value for each individual visual by creating a simple DAX measure that reflects the filter context. That way, a card or dynamic title will always show the consumer’s choice without needing slicers.
1. Create a Measure for the Selected Value
Selected Semester =
SELECTEDVALUE('Semester'[SemesterName], "No Semester Selected")
• If one semester is chosen → it shows that semester.
• If none or multiple are chosen → it shows “No Semester Selected” (you can change this text).
2. Add a Card Visual Beside Each Graph
• Insert a Card visual next to each graph.
• Drop the `Selected Semester` measure into the card.
• Because the card inherits the same filter context as the graph (when you use Filters on this visual), it will display the semester chosen for that specific graph.
3. (Optional) Handle Multiple Selections
Selected Semesters =
CONCATENATEX(
VALUES('Semester'[SemesterName]),
'Semester'[SemesterName], ", ")
This will list all selected semesters in the card.
4. Alternative: Dynamic Titles
Graph Title =
"Enrolled Programs for " &
SELECTEDVALUE('Semester'[SemesterName], "Selected Semester")
Then go to the visual → Format → Title → fx (conditional formatting) → bind it to this measure.
Each graph’s title will automatically show the selected semester.
Example
• Graph 1 filter: Semester = 1/2025 → Card shows “Semester 1/2025”
• Graph 2 filter: Semester = 2/2025 → Card shows “Semester 2/2025”
Now consumers can clearly compare side by side without cluttering the page with slicers.

You are amazing!! I used the dynamic graph titles and it worked like a charm and was super easy. I had asked AI all different variations of this resolution and watched too many videos to count and nothing mentioned this solution. Many, many Thanks!!
