Representing a grouped variable in an ungrouped visual

Hi all,

 

I am trying to represent the total rain of different events along the time axis (as per image and table at the bottom). So when an event start, it should represent the total rainfall of that event until the event ends. 

 

I tried with the dash function below but I am not getting the desires results. Would anyone have any sugestions on what I am doing wrong?

 

Many thanks,

 

Measure =
Var MinTime = minx(addcolumns(summarize(TblRG,TblRG[Event Group]),"MinT",calculate(min(TblRG[Time]),all(TblRG[Time]))),[MinT])
 
Var MaxTime = maxx(addcolumns(summarize(TblRG,TblRG[Event Group]),"MaxT",calculate(max(TblRG[Time]),all(TblRG[Time]))),[MaxT])
return

CALCULATE (SUM
     (TblRG[Rain mm]),
    FILTER (
        all(TblRG[Time]),
        TblRG[Time] >= MinTime
            && TblRG[Time] <=MaxTime
    )
)
return

CALCULATE (SUM
     (TblRG[Rain mm]),
    FILTER (
        all(TblRG[Time]),
        TblRG[Time] >= MinTime
            && TblRG[Time] <=MaxTime
    )
)

@Anonymous - If I understand this correctly, try this measure:

 

 

Measure =
  VAR __EventGroup = MAX([EventGroup])
RETURN
  SUMX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),[Event Group]=__EventGroup),[Rain mm])

 

See the attached PBIX below sig, Table (20), Measure 20.

@Anonymous , You can have new column like

Column = maxX(filter(Allselected(Table), Table[Event Group] =earlier(Table[Event Group])),Table[Rain])

 

or measure like

measure = calculate(max(Table[Rain]), allexcept(Table, Table[Event Group]))

or

measure = calculate(max(Table[Rain]), filter(Allselected(Table), Table[Event Group] =max(Table[Event Group])))
