Hiding small figures

Hi ,

is there a way of not showing figures less than 10% for example in visuals? Im looking at displaying characteristics and though individuals arent identifiable if sliced in the right way they could become so.

 

Thanks,

Two suggestions:

 

1. You can build a threshold into your measure like this

 

MyMeasure = var __asum = SUM(Table[Column])

return IF(__asum <0.1, BLANK(), __asum)

 

2. You can also put a threshold so people can never drill down to the single person level (actually they can drill down but won't see a result)

 

MyMeasure = IF(COUNTROWS(VALUES(Table[Person]))<5, BLANK(), SUM(Table[Column]))

 

If this works for you, please mark it as the solution.  Kudos are appreciated too.  Please let me know if not.

Regards,

Pat
