Conditional Dynamic Value in Text Box

Hello! So you know how you can add a dynamic value inside of a text box:

ACraig08_0-1720703474385.png

I have been trying to find anything that provides documentation or a video tutorial on how to use this but nothing. 

I have a table like this:

Table Name: Added Project Count

ACraig08_0-1720703908014.png

I want to be able to put a dynamic value in there to call the project count based on the district. So my text box would look like this:

 

8 added in D1

8 added in D2

6 added in D3

7 added in D4

...

 

But I can't seem to figure out how to reference a specific table and column and it's value. Any help, whether it is how to actually do it or a link to documentation about this, would be SO AMAZING!!

Hi @ACraig08 

 

I suggest that you can put the results you want into a card visual.

DAX:

Measure = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Project count])&"  added in  "&SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[District])

 

Result:

At the same time, you can also modify the format of the card visual.

I think this will give you what you are looking for.

 

Concat = 
CONCATENATEX (
    'Added Project Count',
		CALCULATE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Added Project Count'[Project Count] ) ) & 
		" added in " &
		CALCULATE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Added Project Count'[District] ) ),
    UNICHAR ( 10 ),
    CALCULATE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Added Project Count'[District] ) )
)

So is there no way to do it within the "Ask a question about your data" box so it's one district at a time and I can edit the formatting.
