Plotting column data based on selection
I have a database where the first column are historic dates. The remaining columns all contain historic data. Each columnheader has the following structure country+number
For example us2, us5, us10, uk2, uk5, uk10
In this example there are 2 options for countries and 3 for the number. These option data is also in a table. So i can make a dropdown containing us and uk and a dropdown with 2 5 10.
Lets say i now select us and 5. How can i make a graph plotting the data in the column us5.
Hi KaniVan2
The following test is for your reference:
My sample:
Convert the columns into rows by using unpivot feature in Transform data(Power Query editor)
Create a measure as follows
Measure = VAR _country = SELECTEDVALUE(Country[Country]) VAR _number = SELECTEDVALUE(Number[number]) VAR _name = _country & _number RETURN IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Attribute]) = _name, 1, 0)Put the measure into the visual-level filters, set up show items when the value is 1.
Output:
If this sample data is structurally different from the one you are using, please provide some sample data and the expected results based on the sample data so that we can better help you.
