Data only appears after clicking visualization

I have a pretty simple visual set up.. all my tables are Direct Query.

I can describe my model if need be.. but wondering if anyone has seen this issue..

 

When I display the report, the visualization only shows a subset of the data (1 row).  I know that is not accurate. I simply click on the visualization and it refreshes itself to show the correct results.

 

I can reproduce this by clicking on another visualization, and then clicking back..

 

Here it is initially (or by clicking the visualiation on the left). Note only 1 row for the right hand side.

Then I do nothing but click on the visualization on the right (note the second row added):

Common issue?

Thanks

HI @rsderidd ,

 

I see a differemce between your 1st screenshot and 2nd screenshot.

In your 1st screenshot you have definitely selected something by mistake whihc is making your right visual display only 1 row.

Once you click outside or anywhere else, the selection on left visual clears and more rows display on the right visual.

This is a default interaction behaviour in Power BI.

Try adding a TITLE on the left visual and try to replicate same steps again by clicking the title on the left visual rather than clicking somewhere else on this visual.

I am very much sure you will understand the difference.

ok thanks.. i didn't realize that clicking on the other visualization's records would actually filter on other ones!
