Custom Visual selection not working

Anonymous — Tue, 29 Jun 2021 14:11:38 GMT

Hey Everyone, I have developed a custom visual which has selection Id for the datapoints. Whenever I highlight on in an area, the visual uses the SelectionManager to select those points. However, the other visuals do not seem to be updating from the selection. When I change something in the other visuals however, it does update this custom visual.

Any help is appreciated,

Zohaib

Update:

So I took all of my code in the visual.ts, visual.less, and settings.ts file and moved them into a new project I created and selections from my custom visual now show up on the other visuals. Not sure what broke but I still have those files.

HI @Anonymous,

I think they may relate to custom visual interactions, you can take a look at the below link about power bi visual data point interactivity with selections:

In addition, you can take also check the following link to know more about power bi visual concepts about those internal operations and interactions.
