How to add Multiple Contain Filters in PowerBI

Hello, I want to create multiple contain filters in PowerBI table. Example is below:

I want to perform multiple filters on the Item column. I want to filter to include text contains 'Farm', 'Hotel', 'House', and 'Tower'. But when I try to filter 'Farm' and 'Hotel' first, there's no option to filter for 'House' and 'Tower'. How can I include the other options without the basic filtering type:

As a reminder, this is just an example. Thanks

Hey woofwoof123,

 

Sounds like your issue is you want to have more than four clauses (?) in your advanced filtering? If so, bit of a quirk but what you can do is select four options in your basic filtering, then convert it to an advanced filter. When you do that, you will then see four different clauses.

 

This is an example from a pbix I have. (Ignore the nerdy context haha)

Let me know if that's not what you were looking for or if I didn't explain myself well.

P.S. Need a more in-depth consultation for your Power BI data modeling or DAX issues? Feel free to hire me on Upwork or DM me directly on here! I would love to clear up your Power BI headaches.
