Can table selection work as a slicer?
#1 - if the column used in the slicer is coming from the same table from which the bar chart column is used, then yes.#2 - no, but with drill though you can, or slicers can be synced between pages and any value selected on one slicer will filter other pages (if sync is used)
spagad6263 Hmmm I see your point on #2 but compared to other BI tools, Power BI is pretty young and all the core visuals are pretty much the same as from day one (ofcourse lots get added with many updates). However, the PBI core visuals team is rebuilding the visuals ground up and assumes it will be much better in terms of functionality and flexibility.
Also, this is what I will do, if there is a feature that is not available, rather than ranting about it, I will add this as an idea on the ideas forum and then try to get votes for the idea. It will do two things, 1) will get to know how important the feature is, more votes, more people want that feature, and 2) more votes, it will get prioritized (hopefully).
Hi,
I tried the suggestion and hope when I click the table on right (highlighted), I could see the slicer (left) been selected. However, it didn't work, even though I've set the "filter" under "Edit interactions". Am I missing something? Thanks
