Change the column name of a matrix depending on a filter selection

[amirabedhiafi]

I have the following matrix (I simplified it) :

I want when I select the months for the 2020 year, the name of the column Year becomes Year 2020
so that column is dynamically modified depending on the year selection.

and the next column will be Year N-1 which is Year 2019.
How can I achieve that ?

Hi @amirabedhiafi ,

Such an output is not available. I'd suggest you put Year to Row field in matrix visual instead.

1. Add a Year column to your table.

Year = "Year "& YEAR([Date]) 

2.Create a Calendat table for slicer.

Calendar = CALENDAR(MIN('Table'[Date]),MAX('Table'[Date])) 

3.Apply below measure to filter pane, set as "is 1":

Measure = 
var _selectYear=SELECTEDVALUE('Calendar'[Date].[Year])
return IF(YEAR(MAX('Table'[Date]))=_selectYear || YEAR(MAX('Table'[Date]))=_selectYear-1 ,1,0)

4.Drag [Cate] to Column field, [Year] to Row field:

@amirabedhiafi I am not aware of a way to make column headers dynamic like that unless you perhaps overlayed them with card visualizations that you used measures in.
