Dynamic Title

Hello everyone, 

 

 

Sorry I am new to Power BI - it might be obvious. 

 

I want to create a dynamic title that display a text only if one option of my slicer is selected. 

For example, if Project 2 [column project definitin] is selected I want the title to display the description [column project description]. However, blanck if there is multiple selection. 

 

Thank you in advance.

    You should be able to just put a measure in a card with this expression.

     

    Description = SELECTEDVALUE(Table[Description Column])

     

    If you want to concatenate it with text you can too.

     

    Description = "The description for this project is: " & SELECTEDVALUE(Table[Description Column])

     

    Regards,

    Pat

    Hi julrua ,

    If you only want to show the title in the card visual, you can create a measure like this:

    Title = 
IF (
    NOT ( ISFILTERED ( 'Table'[definition] ) ),
    BLANK (),
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[description] )
)

    If you want to show the title dynamically in other visuals(for example table visual), enable the title in the visual and apply conditional format for it:

    Attached a sample file in the below, hopes to help you.
