Multiples values from a slicer and calculate

Hello, this is my first post here 🙂 
I am new in this "PowerBI World" and I have a problem:

How can I get multiples values from a slicer?

 

For example: 

 

I have a card that count a determinante  value ("Não Conformidade") with dax:
CALCULATE(COUNT('bugs bugs'[TaskType]), 'bugs bugs'[TaskType] = "Não Conformidade")
But when I select another values from Slicer, this number doesnt change.

When I uncheck the value:

What did I do wrong?

Hi george,

 

You are getting this result because the modifiers in the CALCULATE function by default overwrite the original filter context, which in this case is coming from your slicer.

 

Check out this video from SQLBI that does a great job breaking down the basics of the CALCULATE function.
