Column Chart and Slicer

Hi, I have a column chart which uses City and Population. In the same page, is a slicer for City. These two do not interact as when user selects the City, they can see where the selected City stands...

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Based on your description, you are using live connection mode.

    It is suggested that you do not use the city column as the slicer, drag the city column into the table view, click the city field to interact with the column chart and highlight it.

     

    Best Regards,
    Liang

Would need to understand data layout for this. Is City slicer using the same City column as the column in your table visual? 

 

If so, I would create a separate City table, use SELECTEDVALUE to grab that and use that within a flag measure where you compare IF(MAX('Table'[City]) = SELECTEDVALUE('Cities'[City']),1,0)

 

Use that measure as conditional formatting.

    Thanks Greg. 

    Unfortunately I can't create a table as I use Power BI as the front end and everything is on Cube.

      OK, so you have used Edit Interactions to disable the slicer from affecting the table? Please confirm and I will take a look.

        Yes, I have disabled the interaction between the two. 

        Thanks so much.
