Love your content. Can do a video using field parameters using SWITCH for writing dynamic summaries

Hi !

I've just found your channel this week looking for some tutorials regarding field parameters and your videos helped me a lot.

Do you know if it's possible to use this feature with some ''What if '' analysis in power bi ?

It would be useful if you could create a video about that. For example to compare the results between 2 FY if the growth of any product change in a different way with slicers for example or a blank field to allow the user to write a new % of growth and see how the result of the comparison changes in terms of revenue or other random measure..
