Percent of Total Windowed in Power BI DAX

Question

I have these two tables:

A data table...

ImaginaryData = 
DATATABLE (
    \"Fruit\", STRING,
    \"Colour\", STRING, 
    \"Amount\", INTEGER, 
    { 
           


        

Answer 1

The ALL function removes all filter context. Try it with ALLSELECTED instead. That will preserve your slicer selection while removing the table visual's filter context.

If you use this (note I didn't specify a column):

%Total = 
    DIVIDE(
        SUM( ImaginaryData[Amount] ),
        CALCULATE(
            SUM( ImaginaryData[Amount] ),
            ALLSELECTED( ImaginaryData )
        )
    )

Then you should get this result:

The reason it doesn't work if you do ALLSELECTED(ImaginaryData[Fruit]) is that the Colour filter context still exists, so you don't pick up the other fruits because those are all different colors than the row you are evaluating on.

Answer 2

I used following measure and it works as expected:

%Total = 
CALCULATE(DIVIDE(sum(ImaginaryData[Amount]),
CALCULATE(SUM(ImaginaryData[Amount]),ALLSELECTED(ImaginaryData))))
