Resolver IIUse a Default Measure When Slicer is Set to 'All'
I have a Quarter/Month Hierarchy Slicer.
By Default, the slicer is set to "All", meaning nothing is selected in the slicer. When it is in this state, I want the visual to display a specific measure.
If the user selects a Month or Quarter from the slicer or multiple Months or Quarters, I want it to use a different measure.
I've tried, SELECTED VALUE, HASONEFILTER, HASONEVALUE,and ISFILTERED.
But it seems Power BI thinks the slicer is in fact filtered, when nothing is selected.
What I'm looking for is a default visual display when nothing is selected, but the visual can be customized as the user selects Quarters or Months.
Thank you.
Thanks for the reply. I was actually able to get this sorted out.
What I was after, was for the visual to use a default measure, when the slicer has nothing or "All" selected. I was able to achieve this via some DAX.

You need to determine how many values the slicer has without filters, then compare to how many it has in current context:
Measure =
VAR _CountAllOptions = CALCULATE( countrows( values ( table[column] ) ), ALL() )VAR _CountCurrentOptions = countrows( values ( table[column] ) )
VAR _Result = IF( _CountAllOptions = _CountCurrentOptions, [Default Measure], [Other Measure] )
RETURN

lg1551 Can you please share the DAX that you've used so others can benefit? I'd also be interested to learn how it differs from the DAX I suggested to you.
Thanks! and glad you got it solved.

I had the original measure and I created 2 additional measures.
Measure 1: This measure displays the data as I want it displayed in default state (no slicer selection).
Measure 2: This is a measure that uses an IF statement. If(selectedvalue('slicer')=Blank(), Measure 1, Original Measure.
Hi lg1551 ,
When you want the slicer not to select a month or quarter, the visual is empty, such as the following.
When there's a selection in the slicer, display specific results in the table visual.
Below is the solution.
1.Create a disconnnected calculated table using dax.
2.The fields of the slicer are from Table 2.
3.Create measure as the visual-level filter. Put it into the table visual and set up show items when the value is 1. And then the expected you want is done.
Measure = IF ( ISFILTERED ( 'Table 2'[Quarter] ) || ISFILTERED ( 'Table 2'[Month] ), IF ( MAX ( 'Table'[Month] ) IN ALLSELECTED ( 'Table 2'[Month] ), 1 ) )The key is to create a disconnected table.
