Filter a Column Chart

Friends:
How are you? I have a question, I have two views: a pie chart that indicates the number of students enrolled by Institution and a bar chart that indicates a Top 5 of the Institutions with the highest number of enrolled students. What I want is that from the pie chart, when pressing a certain institution (Universities for example) it brings me the Top 5 Universities in the Bar Graph, however, it highlights the only University that is already in the bar graph. I leave you images for a better understanding of what has happened to me so far:

 

Universidades = Universities

Institutos Profesionales = Institutes

Centros de Formación Técnica = Technical School

Hi @Alfonso_Perez_ ,

This is the interaction by ohter visuals in power bi. When you click one column in one of the visuals in the report, other visuals which related to this column(s) would be highlight.

@Alfonso_Perez_ , the issue is not clear. Are you talking about fill /filter using interactions? expected output is not clear
