Data lines with 0 values displayed anomalies when selected using a slicer

I am using the line chart to display a trend of defects by dept. Some depts has 0 defects but still required to be displayed in the chart.

To do this, I added each dept defects count into the Y-axis.

However, when selected a dept that has 0 value, 2 anomalies occurred:

1. Instead of displaying the selected dept, it shows the first dept. The correct dept is shown is selected a dept with values.

2. The 0 on the line appeared more then 1 as shown in the picture.

 

Are there alternate settings to resolve the above issues?

Thank you in advance!

    Hi, Anonymous,

     

    have you created a measure, or are you using an implicit measure? Do you have a date-table?

    I am not able to recreate your issue, but you could try to write a measure like this:

    Measure = SUMX('Table',if(ISBLANK('Table'[value]),0,'Table'[value])) 

     

    Cheers,

        How have you created your slicer?

        Anyway, the your table is not optimal for what you are trying to do. I would place department on rows instead, like this:
