Creating a Slicer

Hi all,

 

This is a line and stacked column visual I'm working on right now:

 

 

For the line values I've created three measures and given them the values 58, 61, and 67. Is there a way to create a slicer that will allow me to select a line measure value and have only the selected line display with the column values?

 

Thanks in advance!

  • You could create a table like this:

     

    UI Compare Line = DataTable(
    "Label", STRING, 
    "Value", INTEGER 
    ,{ 
    {"Keyword 1","61"}, 
    {"Keyword 2","58"}, 
    {"Keyword 3","67"} 
    } 
    )

     

    Bind that Label field to your slicer.

     

    Create a measure like this:

    UI Compare Line Selected = max('UI Compare Line'[Value])

    Use the measure as the line value in your chart.

      dani0010 Thanks! This makes sense, but how do I create a table in Power BI? I've only been importing them.
