    Hi, Your issue likely stems from the way ISFILTERED() interacts with filters and the specific structure of your dataset. Here’s how to troubleshoot and fix it:

    Your visual disappears entirely because ISFILTERED() is returning FALSE, setting the measure to 1, and your visual is hidden.

    Alternative Approach Using CALCULATE

    Instead of ISFILTERED(), try using ALLSELECTED() to detect if any category is actively filtered:

    HideClassification =
    IF (
    COUNTROWS(ALLSELECTED(Latest[Classification Test])) = COUNTROWS(ALL(Latest[Classification Test])),
    1, -- Show visual when nothing is filtered
    0 -- Hide visual when filtered
    )

    • Replace ISFILTERED() with COUNTROWS(ALLSELECTED(...)) method.

    • Apply the measure as a filter to your visuals.

    • Ensure the measure is correctly added to the visual if filtering options are disabled.
