I am trying to use a calculated measure as a way to filter my data, but it\'s looking more difficult than expected. Let me explain through an example.

Answer 1

You can tell QV to ignore your filtering in the field Amount by adding "Amount=" to your set analysis.

I dont know how your average calculation looks like but maybe:

(aggr(rank(sum({<Amount=>} Score1)), Category, UniqueID) + 
aggr(rank(sum({<Amount=>} Score2)), Category, UniqueID) + 
aggr(rank(sum({<Amount=>} Score3)), Category, UniqueID)) / 3

Answer 2

If I'm understanding correctly, I believe this solution should work:

1. Create a variable for your slider: new_measure_slider.
2. Create a New Sheet Object -> Slider/Calendar Object.
3. Configure your slider to control your new new_measure_slider variable.
4. Create a calculated dimension in your chart substituting your 'New Measure' formula (the one you stated was an average of the three ranks). It should be a conditional like this: =if(aggr([your average formula here], Category, UniqueID) >= new_measure_slider, [Category], null()). Basically, compare your formula to the new_measure_slider variable. If true, use the Category (or UniqueID, whichever you need) as the dimension, if false, null().
5. Check the 'Suppress When Value is Null' checkbox on your new dimension. This is key. This is what will actually filter your chart.
6. In the chart properties, Presentation tab, click on your new calculated dimension and hit 'Hide Column'. We don't need to see this because we are using it only as a filter.
