Hi mark77 ,

 

First create a measure table as below:

 

Then create a measure as below:

Measure = 
SWITCH(
    SELECTEDVALUE('measure table'[Column1]),
    "measure 1",[Measure 1],
    "measure 2",[Measure 2])

And you will see:

 

For the related sample .pbix file,pls see attached.

    Hi! I'm dieing to see what the BPIX file does, but it appears to have an issue. I cannot open it with x64 December2020 version of powerbi. Do I need to install additional components ?

    I tried reinstalling PBI

    v-kelly-msft can you please ensure you and your team are using publically released versions of Power BI? I have the latest from the app store and I cannot open this file.

    hi Kelly. Sorry for the delay. Had some eye troubles last week, so couldn;t really read any screens 😛

     

    Just tried your sollution, and it does not quite do what I want.

    I made a crosstable with "name" "measure1" and "measure 2"

     

    The fields "measure1" and "measure2" remain visible, despite what I choose in filter "column 1" where you prodvided the filter:

     

    Measure =
    SWITCH(
    SELECTEDVALUE('measure table'[Column1]),
    "measure 1",[Measure 1],
    "measure 2",[Measure 2])
     
    The idea is to be able to select which measures to show
