Filtering a column that created from two columns?

Hi Community,

I have a column (XY FILE) that I made by adding two columns (X file + Y file).

I want to filter that column by X file or Y file, but when I do that it filters it wrong.

 

X file  | Y file XY file

   1           1          2

    1          0          1

   0           1          0

 

If I'm filtering by X files it will show me 3 but the correct answer is 2 cause I have only two X files.

which formula should I use?

 

Thank you 🙂

Hi @YehudaBI 

 

If there are only 1 and 0 in X and Y file columns, try this measure:

Measure = countrows(table)

Hi VahidDM,

Maybe I didn't explain myself right.

I Have another Column that I'm filtering X or Y with it.

I need a measure that:

- If nothing is Filtered: it sums the XY file column

- if X file is filtered: it sums just the X file column

- if Y file is filtered: it sums just the Y file column

 

I hope this time I explained myself well.

Thank you!

@YehudaBI , what do mean by filter by X file

Are you trying a measure like

countrows(filter(Table, Table[X file] <> 0 ))

Hi  Amitchandak,

Thank you!
