Chart outcome visualization preference

Hi everyone, 

 

I have an employees table and another 100% stacked column chart which shows a certain KPI at the organization level (total)

When I select a name of one employee, the chart changes the outcome to reflect only data of the employee selected. However, the way it shows the new data (outcome) based on the selection of the other table, is by highlighted the new outcome over the original chart. 

 

I need the outcome on the chart to be dedicated for the selected employee, department,...etc. (not by highlighting over the total) 

 

Here's a screenshot for the table and the chart after selecting one name (note the dark blue and dark green colors)

Any idea how to change it? 

 

Thanks!

@OmarSaleh , Not sure I got it correctly. But do you want the interaction to filter, in place of fill.  You want the first one :https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/service-reports-visual-interactions

Thanks @amitchandak. Exactly that's what I meant, cross-filtering instead of cross-highlighting 🙂 

Many thanks!
