Compare value to coloumn

Hi experts, 

 

my problem is the following one:

 

I have a map with some locations in power bi, which were sucessfully displayed. Now I would like to use the auto zoom and change the colour of the selected location. The rest of these have to be displayed all the time, too.
So I created the same location table twice and put it into the visual. 

 

Now I need the switch "if the selected value of the location (Lacation Table 1 with the slicer) is equal to the the row of Location2 (second location table) then green, otherwise blue" (At the code shown as Var1 = Location2[Address] ) in a measure to use it in the visual.
 

 

But I don't get the right idea. Can you pleas help me😞 (I tried it with calculated and lookupvalue, but it wasn't working)

 

Measure:

 

Colour= var Var1 = Location1[Address]

return

switch (true(), 1=2,
Var1 = Location2[Address]

"green","BLUE")

@v-chenwuz-msft: Your report works fine with the countrys, but what if I want e.g. to change countrys to Gross Sales, I dont get the desired result. Fore Example for the gross Sales 1799 only Canada should be green and the rest is blue, but no colour change. My question is because in my fault I have Ids with addresses and this is nearly the same.

(I didn't find the tag to upload the report 🤔)

Here is the solution as a Video, but in my case it wont work.

DAX Fridays! #212: VALUES vs SELECTEDVALUE to conditional format a line chart - YouTube


For a Test I did it how it was explained and it works:

Test4 = 

var selectvalue = VALUEs(Abfrage1[id])

return
If(selectedvalue(Tabelle[ID]) in selectvalue, "y" , "n")

Do5779_1-1663770772816.png
but for the real data with the same code:

Test4 = 

var selectvalue = VALUEs('Abfrage1'[Index.1])

return
If(SELECTEDVALUE('Member'[Index.1]) in selectvalue, "y" , "n")


I get only "y" as the results...
