Hello there,
I would like to create a Matrix with 1 row, 3 columns (Date hierarchy) and 2 values. One of the values should be broken down by each column and one of the values should only display the total across all columns.
In the example attached, I would like to only display "Count of butterflies" in the Total column. The "Count of butterflies" from 2018 and 2019 columns should dissapear.
Is this possible?

Hi @rvcedd
You may turn off the 'Word wrap' under 'Column headers'.Then drag the column manually to hide it.

Hi @rvcedd
You may try to create a measure to replace "Count of butterflies"
Measure =
IF (
ISFILTERED ( Sheet1[Date].[Year] ) || ISFILTERED ( Sheet1[Date].[Month] )
|| ISFILTERED ( Sheet1[Date].[Day] ),
BLANK (),
CALCULATE ( COUNT ( Sheet1[Butterflies] ), ALL ( Sheet1[Date] ) )
)

Hello,
Thanks for your reply. This solution doesn't solve the problem as the new created Measure still appears as a separate column in the table (it is empty but it still there). Is there any other solution?
Thanks,
Robert

Thanks. This is a good work around and I will accept it as a solution. It would be nice if this was a supported feature, do you know if this has been raised already or shall I submit a suggestion for improvement?
