Have a datacard only appear when a filter has been applied to the data

Hi me again,

 

Phase 2. I have two data cards showing a ratio. One datacard remains unfiltered at all times, so when you slice the data, one card changes, and the other shows the overall value for comparison. 

 

Before you slice the data, you've got two data cards showing the same number. Lame. I want to hide the unfiltered datacard UNTIL someone applies filters to my report. 

 

Go.

@Anonymous That would be more like:

Overall Ratio = 
  VAR __Calc = CALCULATE([Passed Closing SLA]/[Total Closed Encounters],ALL('Closed'))
RETURN
  IF(
    ISFILTERED('Table'[Column1]) || 
    ISFILTERED('Table'[Column2]) || 
    ISFILTERED('Table'[Column3]) || 
    ISFILTERED('Table'[Column4]) || 
    ISFILTERED('Table'[Column5]) || 
    ISFILTERED('Table'[Column6]),
    __Calc,
    BLANK()
  )

@harshnathani  I'm pretty sure I can do it without using bookmarks, I think it's possible with a measure and using transparency but i'm not sure how. 

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

See the second link..

@Anonymous - Can you use ISFILTERED to check and return BLANK?

Probably @Greg_Deckler but i'm not sure how to adapt the measure to hide the data card it's in until the data is filtered. 

This is the measure, which you helped me with yesterday:

 

Overall Ratio = CALCULATE([Passed Closing SLA]/[Total Closed Encounters],ALL('Closed'))
 
I tried putting the ISFILTERED before and after the CALCULATE and it gets upset. 

@Anonymous - Maybe:

Overall Ratio = 
  VAR __Calc = CALCULATE([Passed Closing SLA]/[Total Closed Encounters],ALL('Closed'))
RETURN
  IF(ISFILTERED('Table'[Column]),__Calc,BLANK())

@Greg_Deckler ok, but the 'Table'[Column] - I don't want to specify a column, as it will only work then if that column is used as a slicer. And I have 6 slicers, and I want the measure to remain blank until any of the slicers are applied. Is this possible?

@Anonymous That would be more like:

Overall Ratio = 
  VAR __Calc = CALCULATE([Passed Closing SLA]/[Total Closed Encounters],ALL('Closed'))
RETURN
  IF(
    ISFILTERED('Table'[Column1]) || 
    ISFILTERED('Table'[Column2]) || 
    ISFILTERED('Table'[Column3]) || 
    ISFILTERED('Table'[Column4]) || 
    ISFILTERED('Table'[Column5]) || 
    ISFILTERED('Table'[Column6]),
    __Calc,
    BLANK()
  )

Thanks guys, @Greg_Deckler came up with a solution that works perfectly for my report. Thanks so much I really appreciate it. 

I would genuinely be lost without you!

@Anonymous
I think you're looking for something like this;

Your DAX would be using the 'Closed' table I guess?

Font Color Switch =
= IF(ISFILTERED('Closed')
,"#FFFFFF00"
, "white")

Please @mention me in your reply if you want a response.

@AllisonKennedy ok I can create the measure, but I don't know where to put it, I tried under the field value of the conditional background of the data card but it doesn't make a difference. 

@Anonymous

You may need to update the measure to use "black" instead of "white" and you may need to swap the order of the transparent hex code and color.

Background is white anyway by default so you won't see much difference applying it to background. You'll need to apply it to the 'data label' property color at a minimum, and maybe 'category' and 'border' properties too depending on what you data card looks like.
