Measure that returns TRUE or FALSE when a field is on a visual

My visual is a table that contains two fields:

 

Calendar[Date]

[Sum of Sales] - a measure

 

I'm looking for a simple measure that returns TRUE or FALSE when the field Calendar[Date] is on the visual (thus affecting the context).

 

So, 

HASONEFILTER(Calendar[Date]) returns FALSE

HASONEVALUE(Calendar[Date]) also returns FALSE

ISFILTERED(Calendar[Date])  also returns FALSE

etc...

 

I could use:

COUNTROWS('Calendar') < CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(ALL('Calendar')))

 

But, is there a DAX function for this?

 

Thank you!
