Now, if we want to apply the same feature to select 'All' Measures that we want from a list, we can follow a workaround using a Dashboard. We are creating a simple calculated formula which evaluates to True if 'All' is selected, else False, as shown below. Then, using different sheets, we filter by True in one, and False in the other.
