Cross-Highlighting Scatterplots

Hi everyone! I'm trying to figure out how to implement cross-highlighting for scatterplots in Power BI. I have 4 scatterplots on a page, and I when I click on a point, I want the point to be highlighted in all other visuals, keeping the other points in the background. I've tried to follow Highlighting Scatter Charts in Power BI using DAX – Some Random Thoughts (sqljason.com), but I want to keep my legend for showing which points belong to which company. Ideally the cross-highlighting would just change the opacity. Would greatly appreciate any help, ideas or suggestions.

Hi @Anonymous 

Maybe you can use Tooltips to display the companies of the points .

This is not a solution for this use-case. The user is looking for behavior equivalent to cross-highlighting between scatterplot charts. Adding cross-highlighting as an option to the scatterplot visual would be very helpful.
