Hi @Anonymous,
There is some difference between the calculated column and measure, the value of a calculated column is computed during data refresh and uses the current row as a context; it does not depend on user interaction in the report. A measure operates on aggregations of data defined by the current context, which depends on the filter applied in the report – such as slicer, rows, and columns selection in a pivot table, or axes and filters applied to a chart.

Hi Sud,
Calculated columns are under a row context and the measures are in a filter context.
Try using the CALCULATE function to change the context of the measure (Context Transition):
Column = CALCULATE (SWITCH ([Measure], "Hey", 1, "Hello", 2))
Tell us if it works for you.
