Matrix/Table

I have comments associated with each project in my datasource which are displayed at the bottom of the visual. In my matrix visual i have a list of PMs/Projects on the left side and even if a project is not selected, the comments on the bottom are displayed. How do i make that table show no comments, unless a project is selected?

Hi @PC2022 ,

Create a measure that checks if a project is selected. You can use the HASONEVALUE function for this purpose.

ShowComments = IF(HASONEVALUE('Projects'[ProjectID]), 1, 0)

 

Add this measure to the visual-level filters of your comments table and set the filter to show only when the measure equals 1

You can learn more about HASONEVALUE function here 

If this help you, please consider to accept as solution and give a Kudo.

 

Thank you

You could create a measure like

Show Comments = IF( HASONEVALUE( 'Table'[Project ID] ), 1 )

then use that as a filter on the comments visual, to only show when the value is 1.
