Filter with condition
hi, i'm trying to get a filter that automatically selects me two field,
example, I want if I select the "TOWN HALL" field, the other corresponding field "TOWN HALL - TEMPERATURE" is automatically selected,
some idea? Is it possible to create a filter with a query?

I would consider a new calculated Column that incorporates a high level common factor between the 'xxx' & 'xxx - Temparatura'. Then you would slice/filter based on the high level column.
Let me know if you are unsure.

it can't work for me, because the table is always updating with new values
I would recommend you to enable "Search" option on your slicer and type "Town Hall" in search bar then select required fields related to Town Hall.
Don't forget to give thumbs up 👍and accept this as a solution if it helped you.
Yes Tahreem24 ,
Good solution also.
If you want to go down the Calculated column route the following DAX should work for you.
High Level Selection = IF(CONTAINSSTRING(Table1[Selections],"-"),LEFT(Table1[Selections],FIND("-",Table1[Selections])-2),Table1[Selections])(Obvious disadvantage to this solution is that you will strip out anything after the "-" character. So this will work for all rows in your example, however will give undesirable results if your row contains 2 or more instances of the "-")🙂 sduffythanks for the tip but it can't work for me, because they can be given for example:
TOWN HALL 1
TOWN HALL 2
TOWN HALL - TEMPERATUREIf I select 1 I must restore 1 + temeratua, and if I select two I must take 2 + temperatures
