    Anonymous ouch that wouldn't work because you are changing your measure to a TEXT, it is not a number anymore. I would recommend to use a bookmark to switch between visuals.

Hello parry2k,

 

Below is the measure provided for the reference.

 

Test =
IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Type])= "Number",
FORMAT(SUM('Table'[Value]), "#,0.00"),
FORMAT(SUM('Table'[Value]), "0.00%") )
 
And would like the Y-axis to change accordingly.

      Hello parry2k,

       

      Thank you for the prompt response. Really appreciate your help in this matter.

       

      I would like to ask is there also any other possibility apart from creating bookmark?

       

      Thanks & Warm Regards,

      Harsh

        Anonymous try this and not sure if it will work, create following measures and change their format from the menu by selecting the measure and in measure tools change the format,  one with % and other with the number

         

        Number Measure = SUM('Table'[Value])

Percent Measure = [Number Measure]

Output Measure =
IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Type])= "Number",
[Number Measure],
[Percent Measure]
)
