Network Navigator

I am trying to use the network visuals that are currently available with PowerBi one of these is Network navigator.

 

When I work with Network Navigator and click on a node it filters the input table, usually the node that you click on is the successor, ie it filters in the input table only those rows where the chosen node is the successor. 

But sometimes teh node you are selecting is the predecessor, and it filetsr only the relationships where the chosen node is the predecessor.

does somebody have the answer why it is like this.

 

Regards,

 

RN

does all your data come from the same table?  Can you maybe post some sample data?

Thanks for the response.
I think I understand how the Network Navigator works. What you are inputting is the links data, it recreates the nodes data within the code of the visual, so therefore it cannot retun the node data to you accurately. I had a look at a few more networkdrawing examples and they all seem to be receating the nodes data from the supplied edge (links) data. I am now creating my own pbi visual using R and it works well but cant get cross filtering to work. will post another topic on that
