Drill through filters not working

Greetings, 

 

I made this visual with several quick measures,

I made a drill through page to show a table of locations related to each measure, but when i right click on one of them and go 

to the drill through page nothing changes, it shows me all the location and does not filter them. other visuals that uses columns work fine, but it does not work with quick measures for some reason.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Currently, you could right-click a data point which is actually a column value in other report pages, and drill through to the focused page to get details that are filtered to that context. While the Drill through feature is unavailable for measures , you may learn more Set up drill through in Power BI reports.

 

Best Regards,

Amy

Do you have any columns in your treemap? A drill through report picks up a column from a visual and passes it as a filter to another page. If there are more column filters on the source page, they can be passed as well. Measures are not passed.

No I dont have any columns in the treemap, so what I understand is that columns are fine and will work with the drill through page but measures dont work. Is that right ?

I'm not sure what you mean by "don't work", but only columns with their current filters (which come from visuals) are passed to a drill through report.

I reply because I think there was a change over time. I have created a measure (a var/return + division) and it works fine with the drill though
