Calculate dynamic percentage difference with slicers

Is it possible to calculate a percentage difference that dynamically changes based on slicers.

 

Table 1: YTD 

Table 2: What I want when filtering with slicers (here by month)

Table 3: The result 

 

I've tried two methods to show the Mix % calculation:

 

1) show mix % based on volume column as percentage of column - but can't calculate correct mix difference

2) calculate mix by dividing volume by sum of volume - doesn't work because the sum of volume is based on a different summary table and therefore can not filter correctly with slicers (I need to be able to filter my table and show 100% mix based on what is filtered and not over the original total)

 

Any suggestions?

    Can you share what you have tried and the actual and desired results. (i.e. what do you measures look like, if you cant' share you model at least show a screen shot of the tables and hwo they are related and the definitions of the key measures. 

     

    Tip - the measures will probably look like this

     

    Total Volume Actual = CALCULATE([Volume_Act],All(table[Company]))

    Mix % Actual = DIVIDE([Volume_Act],[Total Volume Actual])
