    When I combine measures and the content of a column in a matrix, I always get the visualization of all the combinations. For example:
    - Measures: Sales Amount, Sales YOY%
    - Year: 2020, 2019

    The visual displays 4 combinations, producing the cartesian products of all the measures and all the years selected. It would be useful to create a list of the combinations required, such as:
    ( [Sales Amount], 'Date'[Year]."2020" ),
    ( [Sales Amount], 'Date'[Year]."2019" ),
    ( [Sales Amount YOY%], 'Date'[Year]."2020" ),

    The primary goal would be to obtain the desired result in a Matrix, but this would be also useful for Table and other visuals, including charts.

    We need this feature.

    Ideally this is an option for the visual itself, to specify yes/no by calculation group item if it is to be displayed, much as distinct series can be modified.

    If you have groups of similar measures for say dollars and quantity e.g. MTD, YTD, Current, there is no way to combine MTD, YTD dollars and Current quantity in the same 3 column visual.

    This will go a long way to getting the most out of calculation groups.
