Hello!
I'm having issues with formatting a matrix to a specific way.
I want to keep the aggregated value on the title row but have the underlying row value be blank.From this
To this
___________________________________________Example dataset
Is this possible to accomplish?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Well as displaying the underlying value is the aim, drilling up is not really an option.
I managed to find something quite close to a solution, I changed the rowname from blank to "-" and added another row which is lacking value.
Then a measure:
Value_ = If(SELECTEDVALUE(Table1[Rowname])="-";"";SUM(Table1[Value]))
You get this:
I would like to replace the "-" with a blankspace, but there doesnt seem to be any way to make selectedvalue() consider " " a string value instead of BLANK().
If you know any workaround that would be great, otherwise I thank you for the help!
I'm afraid this can't be achieved directly in power bi. As a workaround, you can click drill up on the left-top hand of the matrix visual.
