Text Box for Text Input

Hello everyone,

 

i need to make a Dynamic Text Box which shows my Text Input from a Text Filter. 

For example: You have a Table with Names and a Text Filter for Names.

Now if i look for "Tom" via my Text Filter i want to have a Text Box which displays "His Name is: Tom". (Only an Example)

 

Anyone has an Idea how to solve this?

Hi @Saxophone167 

Thanks for reaching out to us.

Please try this, create the measure

Measure = "His Name is: "&SELECTEDVALUE('Filter'[Name])

@Saxophone167 , Once you enable Q&A, you should be able to use measure in a text box
