Filter context not passing into Tooltip page
- Anonymous5 years ago
Yes we did already found the "synced slicers" workaround. It still looks like a crutch though, and a clumsy one.
Concept: we need to control which fields are used to filter out the results on the tooltip page.
Theory: the product already has this functionality by allowing us to explicitly select these fields on the tooltip page's settings
Reality: it's not working the way the product UI implies. Instead, we have to implement a crutch (invisible synced slicer on a tooltip page) to achieve exactly the same outcome.

Has I refered believe this has to do with the filter context passed trough the interactions between visualization, and you cannot have interactions between two visuals on different pages, so for me this makes sense how is build.
However I agree with you that in some scenarios may not be what people need or maybe there is the need to the same way the drill trough works for the tooltips.
As refered you can search if someone posted this idea on the forum and vote for it or create a new one.
Glad you were abble to solve it.
