Hello svella

 

The result of a column change only when you actualize your dataset. So you can't change a column value depending a slicer or anything.

 

Otherwise, you can detect the number of selected items :

NB Selected = COUNTROWS ( FILTERS ( [ColumnA] ) )

Then if you want to display the selection, for a dynamic title for example :

Title = IF ( [NB Selected] = 1 , "Informations for " & CONCATENATEX ( FILTERS ( [ColumnA] ) ) ; "Informations for several animals" )

Use the filters function if you want more options.
