Explanation

A context filter is the only type of filter that can affect a fixed Level of Detail (LOD) expression in Tableau. Fixed LOD expressions calculate values independently of standard dimension filters, but context filters can impact them by setting a specific filtering context before the fixed LOD calculation occurs. Table calculation filters, measure filters, and dimension filters do not affect fixed LOD expressions in the same way, as they are applied after the LOD calculation.
