Create table containing only rows with minimum values from every category

Hello again. 

I tried to create a summarized table without some rows. This is the data table:

I want to only show rows containing minimum values from specific category. This is the desired result.

I tried the following formula, but it returns all 4 rows instead of 3. 

result_table = 
SUMMARIZE(
    Table1, 
    Table1[Category], 
    Table1[Value2], 
    "Value", MIN(Table1[Value])
)

@Zyg_D , you can create a table like

summarize(Table, Table[Category], "Value", min(Table[Value]), "Value2", max(Table[Value2]))

 

or can use a measure like this with Category in a visual min(Table[Value]) and max(Table[Value2])

@Zyg_D because you are also summarizing on value2 column and combination of category and value2 is unique in all 4 rows and that's why you are getting all rows.

 

Do you need value2 in summarize table?
