Hi @Herndon_powerbi 

 

Try this code:

Table 2 =
VAR _A =
    SUMMARIZE ( 'Table', 'Table'[Student], "count-id", COUNTA ( 'Table'[Student] ) )
VAR _B =
    ROW (
        "student", "movie1-yes",
        "count-id", CALCULATE ( COUNTROWS ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[movie1] = "yes" )
    )
VAR _C =
    ROW (
        "student", "movie2-no",
        "count-id", CALCULATE ( COUNTROWS ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[movie2] = "no" )
    )
RETURN
    UNION ( _A, _B, _C )

 

output:

Hi,

     Your solution is correct but I need to use several page filters for this visual. Because I am using the above-mentioned DAX, none of the page filters are applicable. Values are not changing. I want to know how can I overcome this error. Thanks in advance

Hi,

     Please ignore my previous requests, your query is working fine.

 

Thanks,

Hi,

      Your solution is correct but it is counting blank values in the column.

I don't want blank values. Please help me.

Thanks in advance,

 @Herndon_powerbi 

 

Hi,

       Thanks for your solution. I have 4 filters for this query all from different tables. I included them in the page filter. but it seems they are not effective. what should I do to make them effective?

 

 

Thanks
