Count selected values in a slicer

Hi all ,

 

I'm using 

TestSlicerCount =
COUNTROWS(VALUES(FinalTable[Month])) , to count the number of selected values in a slicer with 12 values, works fine but when there are no selections it shows 12 instead of 0. How can i avoid this?

@Anonymous . try like

countx(allselected(table),table[column])

 

Or

measure =
Var _1 = countx(allselected(table),table[column])
var _2 = countx(all(table),table[column])

return
if(_1=_2 =0,_1)

@amitchandak  ,

 

That didn't work , it shows the value as 448 now , i had edited the message just before you replied , maybe you can get a better understanding now

@Anonymous , try

measure =
Var _1 = calculate(distinctCOUNT(table[column]),allselected(table))
var _2 = calculate(distinctCOUNT(table[column]),all(table))

return
if(_1=_2 =0,_1)

Is it possible to ignore some months for slicer count? so for example count all selected on slicer, except 9,10,11,12
thanks!
