Exclude field selections of a Master Dimension affecting certain charts

I have a Master Dimension called 'Category' which is made up of several columns of data. This is then used as a filter to select each category BUT there are some charts (KPI Charts) that should not be filtered by this selection. What I want to know is, How can I exclude these selections from my KPI Chart in my expression but keep all of the data?

Example:

Data has columns for Small, Medium and Large with a 1 or a 0 to indicate whether or not it belongs to that category.

Category Master Item has the following formula: =IF(Small= 1,'Small', IF(Medium = 1,'Medium',IF(Large = 1,'Large')))

When added to the Filter pane Category displays the options to select 'Small', 'Medium', 'Large'

I cannot reference the 'Category' Master Item in an expression so how do I omit these selections (but still include ALL data) from these fields?

Hi

May be help use of Set Analysis expression in this charts? For example,

KPI: Sum({<Field1=, Field2=, ...>} ....)


Returns calculations for the current sample, the selection "Field1" and "Field2" is deleted.

If you want the chart to consider ALL data for your Measure (lets call it FieldX) and disregard the selection in the category field.  Try the following

sum({1<[Category]=>} FieldX)
