Resolver I

is this month (or any other value) selected ?

I have a month slicer

Now i want to return the value 1 if a month is selected and 0 if it is not selected.

 

ultimatly i want to use this as an easy way to format stuff

 

but for now i just want it to show in another table where i have all the month 1-12 and i want the value Either 0 or 1..

 

I can not use isfiltered, because.. well the matrix in its own will apply the filter......   

 

My slicer is not filtering my matrix (obvioisly) 

 

So on this matrix 3 and 7 should have "1" and the rest 0

Hi @Rygaard ,

 

Yes, two tables are necessary depending on your needs. You can hide and more according to your needs.
(1) We can create two tables. Be careful not to build relationships.

Calendar = CALENDAR(DATE(2023,1,1),DATE(2023,12,31))
Month = DISTINCT('Calendar'[Date].[MonthNo])

(2) Create a measure.

Is selected Yes/NO = 
var _selectedvalues=VALUES('Month'[MonthNo]) 
return IF(MONTH(MAX('Calendar'[Date])) in _selectedvalues,1,0)

(3) Then the result is as follows.

Hi @Rygaard ,

 

According to your description, here are my steps you can follow as a solution.

(1) This is my test data.

Slicer Table:

Table:

(2) We can create a measure.

 

yes or no =

var a=VALUES('Slicer Table'[Month])

return IF(ISFILTERED('Slicer Table'[Month])=FALSE(),0,IF(MAX('Table'[Month]) in a,1,0))

 

(3) Then the result is as follows.

It is only working if you have 2 sepperate tables i was hoping to acomplise this within my Calender table

 

So Month in the slicer and month in the matrix is both from my calender table.  but the slicer is not filtering the matrix (only some other stuff on the page)

 

but if this is the only way i will make a "hidden" Calender table that runs in paralell.

I will Accept this as a solution next week (have it in calender).. but hoping for some magic bullet input 😉  - since i would rather avoid the hidden Calender, not connected table version... if at all possible 🙂
