Hi @snifer 

 

You only have one value ("local") in the column used for your slicer. As such, SELECTEDVALUE will always return "local", whether your slicer is selected or not. Resulting in your measure always returning 1.

 

If you add another record to your table, your measure will work as expected.

If you will only ever have one record in that table, you could use the ISFILTERED function instead.

 

Best regards,
Martyn
