Hey, guys,
I hope this one is not a too dumb one 🙂 I am figuring out how cross-filtering works. I am trying to cross filter the table visual by cross by axis values from above. If I press Pirmas 100, I want to see the only those 4 leads, but it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong? Does cross-filtering only work for whatever is in the axis, but does not include the filters that are inside the measure? attaching desktop file:

Well first of all there is no dumb question, Cross Filtering confuses many of us due to ambigiuty of its nature.
You can go thru with this article which explained in better words about Bi-directional filters and ambiguity
