Hi
I uploaded a file to dropbox
https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/bjq8hmi01cumhcr151b0l/test.pbix?rlkey=zlp36uco7jc8mth4417b38p4b&dl=0
Here you see a colum chart, with 2 slicers : Region and Shipmode
There is a filter on the visual, Year = 2016 (to simplify it)
I created a measure 'Max Orders 3' which I refer to in measure 'Dynamic Display Max'
'Dynamic Display Max' is used in conditional formatting of the columns of the column chart
I want to give the column chart with the highest value another color, blue.
But this only works if I select one item from slicer Region and one from slicer Shipmode.
But I also want it to work when I select mulitple items from the slicers.
How do I get it working?
Thnx for the help
Ron
P.S. When you use the Legend in the column chart, you can't conditional format the columns anymore. That's a pity

Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi!
In your "Max Orders Europe 3", remove Orders[Region] and Orders[ShipMode] from summarize so that the table is only grouped by quarter and not by those columns as well. This allows mulitple items to be selected.
Max Orders Europe 3 modified =
VAR _table =
CALCULATETABLE(
ADDCOLUMNS(
SUMMARIZE(Orders,
Dates[Year], Dates[QuarterOfYear]
),
"Totaal",[Sum Orders]
),
ALLSELECTED(Orders)
)
VAR MaxVal = MAXX(_table,[Totaal])
RETURN MaxVal
You should also be able to remove ADDCOLUMNS() and make the measure a bit shorter, but maybe you prefer it that way:
Max Orders Europe 3 short =
VAR _table =
CALCULATETABLE(
SUMMARIZE(
Orders,
Dates[Year], Dates[QuarterOfYear],
"Totaal",[Sum Orders]
),
ALLSELECTED(Orders)
)
VAR MaxVal = MAXX(_table,[Totaal])
RETURN MaxVal
Hope this helps!
