Hi,
I have a slicer containing 'lines' and 'percentage'. Dependent on the selection, I want the format of the table visual (see printscreen) to be adjusted to number when lines is selected or percentage when percentage is selected. How should I achieve this? The values or percentages in the table are a measure selection out of 'slicer_table'.
@Anonymous Are you getting the correct measure with current switch condition?

Yes, it is only presented in percentages when I switch to lines.
@Anonymous ok but you are getting lines measure value although it is shown as %, correct?

Yes, that is correct!
@Anonymous so you need to use format function to return text value and use format expression based on Line or % selection
Your measure =
VAR __yourvalue = <existing switch function>
RETURN
IF ( SELECTEDVALUE (Table[Your line or % column] ) = "%",
FORMAT ( __yourvalue, "Percent" ),
FORMAT ( __yourvalue, "General Number" )
)

Hi,
For the table this helps perfectly, but I cannot select the new measure with the flexible format for a line graph. Do you know why? I need that also, so the line graph should also present percentages or lines.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Also the table format is text and not number I believe. I have to sort on totals when the table is showing lines and this is not working oke.
@Anonymous with format your data is converted into text and thats why you cannot use it in line graph, to achieve this, you need to create bookmarks to show % and value line graph, you cannot achieve this with one measure.
