Slicer & value pick

[Crazydog]

So I have say 3 columns, 

(num)Col A     (num)Col B       (num)Col C (Calculated) 

0.5                   2(variable)           0.5 * 2 

7                      5                          7 * 5  

5                      4                           5*4 

I want to pick a value for Col B using Slicer (variable value), and Col C should automatically the col B value accross the board! meaning entrie col C will use Col B variable value. Any idea how can I do this ?

Hi @Crazydog ,

1. This is not possible if columns [Col B] and [Col C] are calculated columns. Since the nature of a calculated column is that it is only recomputed when memory is flushed, it does not interact with the slicer once the computation is complete.

2. If they are measures, please try:

Measure = 
VAR _col_a = MAX('Table'[Col A])
VAR _value = SELECTEDVALUE('Table2'[Col B])
VAR _result = IF(_col_a = 0.5 , _value , MAX('Table'[Col B]))
RETURN
_result

Measure 2 = MAX('Table'[Col A])*[Measure]

Thanks for this ! Is there any way I can input col B ? and col c will perform calc for that value... cos I am going have over 1000 values for col B.

@Crazydog , Based on what I got . Assume you have independent table with list of columns -ColumnList

You need a new measure

Sumx(Table, Switch(selectedvalues(ColumnList[Column List])

"Column2", [Column2] *[Column3],

"Column4", [Column2] *[Column3],

[Column2] *[Column3]) )
