Dynamically Highlight Data Points on Scatter Plot

I have a scatter plot in Power BI displaying product performance across different metrics. The X-axis represents "Sales Growth" and the Y-axis represents "Profit Margin." I also have a slicer for "Product Category" that allows users to select different product categories.

Requirements:

  1. When a specific "Product Category" is selected in the slicer, I want all points belonging to that category to be highlighted in a distinct color.
  2. The non-selected categories should remain visible but appear in a faded/gray-out color.

You can acheive it by creating a disconnected table for Product category. I would suggest you to watch this SQL BI
