Use measures with Card browser
Hi,
I work for a retail company and was asked by our category managers to create an assortment planning tool in PBI. I want to visualise our products for our category managers and purchasers using the Card browser and show stats "on the backside" of the card (metadata fields). I re-used an older PBI report where I have plenty of measures already created and added a new table with pictures from our DW. Visualising the products works just fine but I run into problems when I want to add my measures to the backside of the cards. It seems like measures cannot be dragged into the metadata fields. Is that really the case or am I just doing it wrong?
Best regards,
Erik

You could use it as a workaround, first, use all the products have a url field( which is used for show as images).
Then put them into table or matrix visual. That might not show very well.
And I suggest you use Card browser to show some of the information and add another visual beside it which is used for the
information of measure.
When you click on one product, the visual will be filtered automatically.

Based on my test, Measure could only be dragged into Card browser in "Sorting Field" Value that used for greater sorting flexibility.

Thanks for your answer, v-lili6-msft
Yes, it seems like the Sorting field is the only place where measures can be dropped which unfortunately makes this visual useless for my needs.
Do you or anyone knows a good visual where both pictures and measures can be used?

Usually, table visual could be used both pictures and measure which will show all the pictures.
