    Hi Anonymous,

    As the document said, these functions are based on the calculation groups. How did you calculate group settings? Did you confirm you have correctly configured these fields and properties?

    If not, you can take a look at the following blog that mentioned about create calculate groups in power bi dekstop:

Thanks, I had the same issues that the resut from the calculation would come up instead of the name. Its not a terrible work around for me, it did the trick 🙂

The pro is that it got me to learn a little more about Smart Text. 
the con is that the font I use for the other chart titles (Segoi UI I think) isn't available in Smart text. And it's the Power BI default!
