Dynamic Histogram with Measures

[Anonymous]

Hi everybody ! How are you?

I need to do a dynamic histogram where the value is a measure. It is a possible?

Basically, I need a histogram that is based on a measurement and that changes according to the selected date slicer changes.

The example would be as follows:
I have a measurement ranging from -100% to 100% and I need to group stores with values from -100% to 100% in 10% intervals.

Thanks !

Regards!

Hi guys,

great and clear example. I have an additional question: I have build a distribution measure as suggested, however it seems to be ignoring any date filters I am applying. Any thoughts how I can make it reactive to changes in the date filter? Good to know the measure draws it's data from a different table than the one the COUNTROWS is applied to.

Hi @Anonymous ,

First of all, We can create a calculated table as the Axis:

X-Axis =
ADDCOLUMNS (
    ADDCOLUMNS ( GENERATESERIES ( -1, 0.9, 0.1 ), "Value2", [Value] + 0.1 ),
    "RangeName", FORMAT ( [Value], "Percent" ) & "  ~  "
        & FORMAT ( [Value2], "Percent" )
)

Then we can create a measure to count the value dynamicly

Count =
COUNTROWS (
    FILTER (
        'Table',
        [Measure] >= MIN ( 'X-Axis'[Value] )
            && [Measure] <= MAX ( 'X-Axis'[Value2] )
    )
)

If it doesn't meet your requirement, kindly share your sample data and expected result to me if you don't have any Confidential Information. Please upload your files to One Drive and share the link here.

to avoid a value that lies on the edge of a category being counted in both the the lower and higher categories, I recommend changing the count measure from

Count =
COUNTROWS (
    FILTER (
        'Table',
        [Measure] >= MIN ( 'X-Axis'[Value] )
            && [Measure] <= MAX ( 'X-Axis'[Value2] )
    )
)

to

Count =
COUNTROWS(
    FILTER(
        'Table',
        [Measure]
            > MIN( 'X-Axis'[Value] )
            && [Measure]
                <= MAX( 'X-Axis'[Value2] )
    )
)
