Using a text measure as a legend

Hello everyone,   I'd need your help: I created the measure "Measure_Level_Asset".    Misura_Livello_Asset = IF(GOV_Asset[Misura_Rischio_Residuo_Asset]<1,"Azzurro",IF(GOV_Asset[Misura_Rischio...

    Hi lucamilanesi

     

    You cannot create calculated column based on measures.This process may be a little complicated, but it can solve your problem.
    1. Create a table with "Azzurro", "Verde", "arancione", "Rosso",Then you can use this column in the legend fields.
    2.Create four separately measures for “ Azzurro” and “ Verde” and “ Arancione” and “ Rosso”. Add these two measures into Values section of the chart.
    DAX is like this:

     

     

    num_Azzurro = COUNTROWS(
		FILTER(ALL('GOV_Asset'),
			[Misura_Livello_Asset] = "Azzurro"
		)
	      )

num_selection = 
    var _nv = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Column1])
    return SWITCH(_nv,"Azzurro",[num_Azzurro])

    You can refer to this .pbix.

Hi lucamilanesi ,

 

It is not possible to add a measure as chart legend, as measure actually returns a single value.

Based on your description, you have a trouble with creating calculated columns. Can you provide some sample data and the results you want?

 

Best Regards,

Liang

Thank you for your interest V-lianl-msft 

This table is formed by the measure "Measure_Level_Asset", the content is the one in evidence (names of colors). Each asset is identified by a color (which may vary depending on the value assigned to the various parameters). In fact, this measure is dependent on another measure.
I hope I have provided useful information.

      Hi V-lianl-msft ,

       

      i think that we are not understanding each other or I am really far from understanding the solution (probably) 🙂

      I created a dynamic report (by dynamic I mean that varying one or more parameters set get different results and then different views) to simulate different scenarios. Everything is built through calculated columns and measures referred to the parameters.

      It works everything except the change of color in the display that I attach, I have to use the calculated field "Level_Asset" (which does not change to vary parameters, of course it is static in the simulation) as a legend and not the measure "Measure_Level_Asset" because of course the measure can not be entered as a legend for various reasons.

      So how to do it? 🙂

      Thank you very much
