Display data type text in matrix

Hi community, 

 

I was wondering how to display a text value in matrix, but it shown the results of last and first selection, which that is not I want. This seems a really easy task but it does not work.

 

Let me explain in example

This is what my table looks like. 

Now, when I insert the matrix (which also filter by date)

In 11/9, the Ch4 should shown false, while 10/9 for Ch4 should in true. However the result shown true for the last and false for the first in selection below.

Do you have a solution to this issue ?

 

Many thanks

Make each row in your matrix visual unique. That will prevent the forced aggregation and you can choose whichever aggregation you want.

 

It sounds like the matrix visual may not be the best choice for your data/story.
