Change visual/formatting based on slicer selection
Hello!
I am trying to understand if it is possible to change the graph type or at least the formatting based on user selection. For example, in this visual, the 'line' trend makes sense only when 'time' (mon/qtr/year) is selected.
1. When vendor or subchannel are selected, it should display stacked column chart instead of a line and column chart. Is this possible?
2. If not, is there a way we can make the line width = 0 when vendor or subchannel are selected so that we don't see the line?
Kindly let me know if you need more information on this for understanding. Thanks so much in advance for your time.

Both of your requests are possible only using bookmarks, you can add buttons that users can press and change the visual types. This functionality is not available based on data/hierarchy levels.
About the issue of line there is an idea you can vote for :https://ideas.fabric.microsoft.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=e10a9518-796b-4bc9-b8bc-4c1174a3f8c5
and suggest others.
Note that the graph with two axes is inefficient for any type of variation or design, as well as for any type of interaction when it comes to data visualization.

Hi Ritaf1983
Thank you so much for your response. Yeah, bookmarks is the option that came to my mind first. Since this chiclet slicer is being used by other visuals on that page, I am hesitant to redo everything using buttons. I have voted for this feature and will take a look at the link you have provided for better understanding. Thanks once again.
