dynamic text box in live connection

hi all,

 

is it possible to create a dynamic text box in a live connection. i want something like "Report and so on 2. Quarter 2019" where 2. and 2019 is dynamic. In live connection i have not the FORMAT command.

 

many thanks.

hi it works when i use a simple measure/column like [Column1] but not when i have something like IF( [Column1]>0; "positive";"negativ")

@powerbityro ,
