Filter Dashboard from selection in Area Chart

[davidson929]

Hi,

I have an area chart on my layout that has many data points. I want to be able to select one data point and have other charts on the layout be filtered to display their data relative to the selection in the Area Chart. I can do this when I utilize other chart types but for some reason I cannot get the requisite action when the chart is an Area Chart type. 

Is this possible?

Thank you.

Hi @davidson929,

Area charts don't crossfilter other charts by now. Maybe you could submit an idea here: ideas.powerbi.com

The paragraph below is cited from official document: basic-area-chart

"To select an area, click inside that area or along the top line.  Basic area charts do not cross-filter the other visualizations on the report page. However, area charts are a target for cross-filtering triggered by other visualizations on the report page."

Best Regards!
