Is this a PowerPivot Bug, or am I doing something wrong?

I am working on a PowerPivot data model. I am having problems with 2 slicers that are not behaving as I would expect. I have double checked everything and I think I have done it right. So why don't they correctly show when there is no visible data based
on the selection?
I have created this video to show the problem.  I would appreciate any help, or advice if this is a bug.

Gerhard, thanks for your response.  In replying to you post below, I discovered some more information and "sort of" got it to work, but I still don't understand the issue.
If you look at my video at 2:11 mark, you will see the following structure
Sales_Data => Branch_State => State
The sales data is at the branch level.   Each Branch is only in one state.  The state table exits because it is connected down one path to Sales_Data but via another path to Weekly_Promotions.  The weekly promotions
are only stored at the State level, not the branch level, so I need this structure.
So if I use the State field from the Branch_State table for my slicer, it works - that is why I just discovered when I was replying here.  But I don't know why the higher level State only slicer doesn't work.

    when i go to Music > Artist > All, as you suggested, i see all the albums i have listed. doesn't really relate to my problem with artists with songs in one album, as well as song w/o album set, and the latter not showing up.
    but that reminds me, why is it when i go to the All section from a particular artist and they do have more than one album (or even no albums), the order of the songs is in the order they are in the albums.. if i wanted the order it is on albums, i would have selected that album for example.. it would be nice if the songs were in alphabetical order when you're NOT browsing by album, making a particular song easier to find (what if you have thirteen albums for example and u aren't sure which album a song is on, now you have to scroll through a seemingly random ordered list to find one song, alphabetical would be SOOOO helpful!)

  • Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? (Custom Buttons)

    I have a project where I've created a custom buttonbase which has a custom skin.
    Create a button that uses the custom skin which extends the custom button base the first time the button is used it doesn't work the way I would expect.
    Here's what happens. The first time the app is loaded the button's up state shows up just fine. If I mouse over the button it flashes black for a second while it loads the mouse over state. If I mouse out and over again it works normally. Now if I click on the button it flashes black again while it loads the selected state and then the selected over state. After the first time the button functions correctly. But naturally I don't want the button to flash black the first time it's used. I want it to show my custom skin the first time not the second and subsequent times.
    I've included a project that demonstrates the problem. I have added some for loops in the part of the code that determines the custom colors for the button, just so that the black flash is really obvious.
    If you look at it there are three classes. The ButtonSkinBase which defines the base look for all skinned buttons. The ButtonSkin which is a specific skin to use. And the ButtonGraphic which is just a custom definition for a button.
    I think the problem is in the SDK in that it isn't loading the ButtonGraphics in the ButtonSkinBase class before they are used. It loads them when they are used. However, I'm not that experienced with the way the SDK functions under the covers so it could be that I'm not doing something I need to do.
    Any help with this would be great.

    So are you saying there is a better way or another way to do that? Or are you just telling me that's how it works? Because I know that the includeIn isn't creating the other buttons untill they are needed. I need them created when the button is created. That is my question, how do I get the other states to be created when the button is created so that I don't see the button flash black?

  • Hi there, I seem to be losing emails from my inbox - they just disappear! Is this some sort of a bug or am I doing something wrong? thanks

    I also just reactivated my MS outlook & same thing seems to be happening...does Outlook somehow sync to Thunderbird?
    Please help!

    No/yes
    If its an IMAP account, they both read the same account.
    If its a POP account check that you leave it on server and don't delete after x days.
    Check your account on server as well as on both your clients.

  • Is this a bug in ipod software or am i doing something wrong?

    I got my ipod video a few weeks ago and was excited to be able to carry all 7000+ songs around in one place.. but then i ran into this problem and i'm not sure if it's a bug or if i'm doing something wrong.
    let's say i have exactly one album by an artist.. and i also happen to have some singles from the artist, with no album set... (i prefer not to have albums set for songs i don't have the entire album for, to keep from having to sort through a truckload of albums i don't completely have).
    when i browse by artist, and i select the artist, only the songs in the album shows up, all the non-album labeled songs are not visible! the same thing happens when i choose by genre..
    in fact the only way to find those songs not bound to an album is to select them from the song list.. and having to scroll through 7000+ songs to find one really bites..
    curiously enough, if there is two or more albums, then i can find the songs without albums.. definately sounds like a bug to me.. the software for the ipod video is only at v1.0, maybe they'll fix this (hopefully other ipods don't have this problem, i have no way of knowing though).
    one work around i have tried is to set an empty album for the artist's song that has none, but i mean i don't want to do that for all my non-albumed songs because i'm interested in preserving the timestamp of songs (to know when i got them) and i can't reasonably search for songs that have exactly one album to just set those..

    when i go to Music > Artist > All, as you suggested, i see all the albums i have listed. doesn't really relate to my problem with artists with songs in one album, as well as song w/o album set, and the latter not showing up.
    but that reminds me, why is it when i go to the All section from a particular artist and they do have more than one album (or even no albums), the order of the songs is in the order they are in the albums.. if i wanted the order it is on albums, i would have selected that album for example.. it would be nice if the songs were in alphabetical order when you're NOT browsing by album, making a particular song easier to find (what if you have thirteen albums for example and u aren't sure which album a song is on, now you have to scroll through a seemingly random ordered list to find one song, alphabetical would be SOOOO helpful!)

  • Bug in shuffle? or am I doing something wrong?

    Hi,
    I have a number of 1-minute clips that each have a 3 second text name on them in track v2. I've decided I want to re-order some of the clips, and I'm having more trouble with it than expected.
    First I tried to attach the name to the audio and video clips using
    Modify->Link, but that does not seem to work for linking two video clips in the timeline together. (I also tried attaching the text to one of the audio tracks, but all that did was unlink the "real" video that went with the audio.)
    I decided it's not that hard to just select both video tracks for each move, I'll just shuffle them together. I can't get shuffle to work properly! It worked (sortof) once. I selected both video and audio tracks, dragged them to the new location, hit "Option", watched the pointer change, and released the mouse. The selection moved, but instead of rippling the change down, it left a gap. It did not overwrite the other item in the track as though I had not hit option.
    I can work around that I'll just be left with a gap as I move segments forward to where the correct sequence is.
    Now comes the problem: I can't even repeat that! It seems no matter what I do, I can't shuffle segments in the timeline, they will overwrite. I've tried moving just the V1 segment, with the intent of moving the text later, no luck; it overwrites! I make sure that the arrow changes when I press the option key, and it does, although sometimes it changes to the right arrow instead of the little bendy one. Either way it overwrites instead of inserting. I've tried cmd-x cmd-v to cut and paste, but again it overwrites.
    Is this a bug I've triggered? or am I doing something wrong? I've read through page 200-201, volume 2 of the manual fairly carefully and I think I'm doing it right.
    I am using FCP 5.0.4.
    Thanks,
    --Beth
    PS. Even if it did work correctly, I think I'd prefer to shuffle automatically, and overwrite by pressing the option key. Is there any way to set that in a preference?

    It always works for me. You cannot shuffle multiple clips. Well, if you do, it will leave a gap. Why? dunno.
    I believe if your video and audio are not linked (cmd-L and you can only link audio and video, not multiple video clips) they will be considered multiple clips.
    The "bendy" arrow is the one you want and it varies based on where in the track your pointer is. Lower - insert, upper (I think) leaves a gap. Also, I always press the option key after I've started moving, but before it settles, but I don't think that should affect your operation as long as you push option after you've started moving, but before you let go.
    As to changing the option behavior, I don't think there's a way...

  • IndentAndSpacingFormat - Bug in API or am I doing something wrong?

    I have a FieldObject in my report with double line spacing (LineSpacing=2) and then try following code to see its spacing format:
    double lineSpacing = myFieldObject.FieldFormat.StringFormat.IndentAndSpacingFormat.LineSpacing;
    Unfortunately this returns 1 instead of 2! It always returns 1, no matter which field object I try it for. Am I doing something wrong?
    Thanks in advance...

    Hi John,
    I've duplicated the issue. It seems to be a problem only when the field type is defined as Memo in CR Designer. If the field is a String type then it returns the correct value.
    I'll have to escalate this to R&D to fix. It will take 2 or more months depending on their load or more.
    Verified indents do not return the correct value also. Likely related to the field type.
    Thank you
    Don
