Calculation groups without a measure

Hi PBI community,

I'm trying to apply this trick from Bas in which he switches between absolute values and % of total : https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=UnG0u8J0pSc

 

However, this solution doesn't quite work for me for a very good reason : I am not using a measure but a bare column in the context as Y value, thus the SELECTEDMEASURE() cannot work.

 

Thus my question, how may I use such a lovely trick to print raw value vs % without having a measure in the context please ?

 

Here is the code :

 

 

DIVIDE ( SELECTEDMEASURE(), CALCULATE ( SELECTEDMEASURE(), REMOVEFILTERS('ConsolidatedCapacityPlan'[Project category]) ) )

 

Here is a summary of my fields :

Thanks in advance for your help,

Nicolas.

@nicplancho when you are using calculation groups you cannot use implicit measures. check playlist of cg videos on my YT channel.
