Hide values in matrix visual while the rows are collapsed

Hi all!

 

I'm hoping someone can point me along the right direction: I'm trying to hide visuals while matrix rows are collapsed, but display them on expansion.

 

I have the following table:

CategoryItemItem KeyQuantity
ClothesShirt12
ClothesShorts21
ClothesTrousers35
ShoesHeels43
ShoesFlip Flops52
ShoesTrainers62
BagsRucksack75
BagsHandbag84

 

I create the visual in Power BI as so:

And the visual looks as:

ShannonBeahan_3-1595510267179.png

 

 

or collapsed:

I want them to look the following way:

so you only see:

ShannonBeahan_7-1595510548068.png

On expansion.

 

 

 

 

Is there any way to do this? Hide values only untill expanded? 

Please let me know if this is possible!

 

Thank you kindly,

Shannon

You can use a measure

Right click on table name and pick "new measure".

On formula bar type:

Item_Key = IF(COUNT(Table[Item Key] = 1, SUM(COUNT(Table[Item Key]), BLANK())

In your Matrix visual, use that measure instead of Item Key column.
