Using Cards to Slice Data
Hi Everyone,
I am a brand new Power BI using (transitioning from Tableau).
I am currently attempting to rebuild my dashboards from scratch and whereas I can work my way around the visuals and how they slice/interact with one another, I am having trouble getting a Card to slice my data.
In short, I have a card visual for Count of Completed Order and a separate table visual with a list of Every Order's detail (completed or not).
I want to click on this Count and have the details table filter/sliced accordingly.
I have tried changing the Count to a bar chart which works, but not aesthetically fit. We'll like for it to be just a number (hence we used Card).
Eager for suggestions.
Thank you in advance.
Hi Jackey
As per testing, the both old and new card visuals doesn't provide the visual interaction you need. You may be able to do this by using the tile slicer instead.
Note: There seems to be a bug with data formatting on labels in the tile slicer. Numbers are supposed to show currecny, not just plain numbers. The workaround is to use FORMAT([measure], "$#,#") and use that in the label instead.

Thank you, danextian
Looks like it served my purpose.
