Hi,
Need your kind help again,
I have the following table
Country Name
Sudan X
Sudan Y
Sudan Z
Nigeria (null)
When I use a map with color saturation count of name (Distinct), and I hover over Nigeria, it is showing me the count = 1 instead of 0. Any advise?
Thanks,

Hi @abukapsoun,
DISTINCTCOUNT function counts the number of different cells in a column of numbers, it will not ignore the null values. In your scenario, you can try to create a measure:
Measure 2 = var CountIgnoreBlank=CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(Table1[Name]),FILTER('Table1','Table1'[Name]<>BLANK()))
return
IF(CountIgnoreBlank=BLANK(),0,CountIgnoreBlank)
Then place this measure to Color Saturation box.
