Hi there!
I am working on a frontpage on which I want to show things like: top 10 highest, top 10 lowest, allocation ect ect. How can I show this of several columns on one page (without showing them together)? is it possible to have a slicer that makes a selection between columns possible? These columns are not related to each other so its not a hierarchy.
in other words a slicer or anything that makes a selection of a column possible instead of the values of each column:
A
B
C
ect
Please let me know if you need additional info,
many many thanks!

Hi @Anonymous ,
Based on your description, measure can achieve similar requirment, but column cannot.
Create multiple measures, create a disconnected table with the name of measure, and change measure dynamically through slicer.
Sum_sales = SUM('Table'[Sales])
Rate =
var total_month_sales = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Sales]),ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[Month name],'Table'[Date].[Year]))
var per_product = [Sum_sales]
return DIVIDE(per_product,total_month_sales)
Measure = SWITCH(SELECTEDVALUE('Table (2)'[slicer]),
"Rate",[Rate],
"Sum_sales",[Sum_sales])

Liang

@Anonymous , Not very clear
You can not show hide the columns. But you use measure slicer or bookmarks to create this kind of feel

@Anonymous Mostly DAX works on 1 column, so you might be able to unpivot the columns and get a similar result to what you're looking for.
