Slicer / Filter exception

[Anonymous]

Hi guys, I'm new in PBI, I'm looking for ways to have a condition in filter. I have these slicers with type: sedan, hatchback, truck and I have 2 line chart:
- Hatchback and Sedan
- Truck

Now, I have the table car type as global filter:

They have relationship on car type hence when I select any value in the slicer, it will affect the line charts. Now my goal is that if I only select Truck, the hatchback and sedan linechart should not be affected:

and if I select Sedan and Truck, both the line chart should be affected:

This is the sample data:
Car type:

CarType

Truck

Sedan

Hatchback

hatchback and Sedan:

Type	Id	ExtractedDate_YearMonth	SumDuration
Sedan	ORDER12335	01/10/2021	80.1
Sedan	ORDER56723	01/01/2021	81
Sedan	ORDER75231	01/11/2021	22
Hatchback	ORDER16843	01/08/2021	13

Truck:

Type	Id	ExtractedDate_YearMonth	SumDuration
Truck	ORDER11111	01/01/2021	12.1
Truck	ORDER33333	01/02/2021	99
Truck	ORDER33331	01/03/2021	17

I have other linecharts connected to the car type and I want to just use this car type as global filter. Do you guys have an tips or tricks for me to utilize the slicer?

Thanks in advance!

Hi  @Anonymous ,

You can create two measures separately. When the slicer selects Truck, the display related to Truck is displayed. When the slicer selects Truck and Sedan, the display related to Truck and Sedan is displayed. I don't know what the result of your specific condition judgment is. To define the rules, you can replace the judgment result in the following function:

Measure =
var _select=SELECTCOLUMNS('Car type',"1",'Car type'[CarType])
return
IF(
    "Truck" in _select&& NOT("Sedan" in _select),
    SUM('hatchback and Sedan'[SumDuration]),0
    )

Measure 2 =
var _select=SELECTCOLUMNS('Car type',"1",'Car type'[CarType])
return
IF(
    "Truck" in _select&& "Sedan" in _select,
    SUM('Truck'[SumDuration]),0
    )
