Capture Using DAX whether visual is hidden or not
Hey mayurwadhwani ,
unfortunately, the answer is short - no, it's not possible.
If you consider Power BI layered components (largely simplified), then the
- bottom layer can be considered Power Query (connecting to data sources and shaping the data using the power of M)
- medium layer (the data model, with all the DAX magic)
- tip of the iceberg layer, data visualization, and the interaction model (filtering the data)
The top layer (data visualization) creates DAX statements to query the underlying data model, but in a certain way the communication is one way, for this reason, it's not possible to create a DAX statement (a measure) that checks if a visual is visible or not.
Hopefully, this provides more insights.
Regards,
Tom
