Strange RANKX sorting

Simple setup with Table "Result" Column "Size" (decimal formatted), slicer ("Sample Name" from Table2 Parameter).


1 to many relationship setup between Parameter and Result table.

Rank Size = 
RANKX (ALL(Result), CALCULATE(SUM(Result[Size])),,ASC, Dense)

 
Result below:

Is it the filter context that is impacting or what is happening?

Hi @Salle ,

 

I suggest you to try code as below to create a measure.

Rank Size =
VAR _SIZE =
    CALCULATETABLE ( VALUES ( Result[Size] ), ALLSELECTED ( Result ) )
VAR _ADDRANK =
    ADDCOLUMNS ( _SIZE, "RANK", RANKX ( _SIZE, [Size],, ASC, DENSE ) )
RETURN
    SUMX ( FILTER ( _ADDRANK, [Size] = MAX ( Result[Size] ) ), [RANK] )

Result is as below.
