Dynamic Title that matches the SLICER's selection instead of MAX range in my current data

Hi everyone,

 

I have a table that shows a list of projects and a few different values for each project. Two values that we have created slicers for are the "Open Date" and "% of Confidence". What I would like to show in the Title is the value entered into the slicer, not the MAX value that I currently have available in my data.

 

My data visuals look like this:

What I would like for it to show (to match my data slicers): "Project Activity (Next 15 Days, 25+% Confidence"

 

My DAX Measure that I am currently using for my dynamic title looks like this:

Title 1 = 

"Project Activity (Next " & MAX (Append1[Open Date minus Today]) & " Days, " & MIN (Append1[% of Confidence]) & "+% Confidence"

 

I think that I either need to find a way to add a full range of all dates and confidence percentages for the "MAX" feature to show in the title correctly, but I'm really not sure on how to achieve that.

 

Thank you!

Here is a sample file with the solution https://www.dropbox.com/t/TNd8TRAhoEb7fxLT
First you need to create a simple date table

Date = CALENDAR ( TODAY ( ), DATE ( YEAR ( MAX ( Append1[Open Date] ) ), 12, 31 ))

Then create the % confidence selection table

% of Confidence Selection = 
SELECTCOLUMNS ( GENERATESERIES ( 0, 100, 1 ), "% of Confidence", [Value] )

Then create the relationships

The tilte measure would be

Title 1 = 
VAR NumberOfDays =
    CALCULATE(
        DATEDIFF ( TODAY(), MAX ('Date'[Date] ), DAY ) + 1,
        CROSSFILTER ( 'Date'[Date], Append1[Open Date], None )
    )
VAR Confidence =
    CALCULATE ( 
        MIN ('% of Confidence Selection'[% of Confidence] ),
        CROSSFILTER ( 'Date'[Date], Append1[Open Date], None )
    )
RETURN
"Project Activity (Next " & NumberOfDays & " Days, "
    & Confidence & "+% Confidence"

And this is how the report looks like

That worked! Thank you so much

Hi @NB689 

You can try

Title 1 =
"Project Activity (Next " & SELECTEDVALUE ( Append1[Open Date minus Today] ) & " Days, "
    & SELECTEDVALUE ( Append1[% of Confidence] ) & "+% Confidence"

When I try that I'm getting this.

One idea came to my mind is that you can create a filter table with the just the numbers between 0% - 100% and then create a relationship between this table and your table via the % of confidance column. When the slicer is based on this column then we can retrieve the exact Min and Max. 
Regarding the time as I mentioned in my previous reply, just subtract the MAX - MIN to get the number of days

We can use the following to retrieve the number of days

MAX( Append1[Open Date minus Today] ) - MIN ( Append1[Open Date minus Today] )

 However, I have no idea how to retrieve the value of a slicer. I'm interested to know as well
