Needed: the most complicated visualization ever
I need a visualization that is a "checkbox", if you can use your imagination. I've never seen it in PBI, ever.
SQL Server data type = "bit" (can be a 1, or it can be a 0, but nothing else)
Field renders in PBI direct query: either "TRUE" (corresponds to 1) or "FALSE" (corresponds to 0)
Requirement: when "TRUE" the checkbox is shown as "checked", when "FALSE" the checkbox is shown as "unchecked".
This visualization will also manage to render the name of the field in a header, formattable.
This visualization is NOT a slicer. I don't want to slice on this field, just render it as-is, shown as a "checkbox".
Any ideas?
joglidden2 for checkbox, UNICHAR(9745). For empty checkbox, UNICHAR(9744). You can create a measure to use in a Card visual like:
Measure = UNICHAR(9745) & "This is some header"

Greg , you have book! I'm gonna get that.
I'll check out your proposed solution and let you know what I think.Greg_Deckler , thanks for the suggestion, that worked! Here's what I did (with a column instead of a measure):
Network_Opt_Req_Check = IF(EBS_site_tracking_view[Network_Opt_Required] = TRUE(), UNICHAR(9745), UNICHAR(9744))Shown is the column (filtered on that row), in both a card and table. For the card, I just turned off the category label and created a formatted title. Very best!
