Filter interaction missing

I can't set the interactions between by my visuals to filter instead of highlight.

I used to see icons like this

But now all I see is this

Did something change to remove this feature or have I inadvertantly switched it off?

Hi @IntaBruce ,

The latest version of power bi just updated icons to look more friendly, but they still do the samething in the same order.

Hi @IntaBruce 

 

What visuals are you trying to create cross-highlight interctions for?

Slicers to other visuals - filter only

Other visuals to matrices/tables - filter only

Between matrices and tables - filter only

Hi @IntaBruce ,

Thanks I just didn't look close enough!

The new icons look like this

Whereas the old ones looked like this

However Microsoft haven't yet updated their online documentation. see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/service-reports-visual-interactions?tabs=p...

 

 

 

Exactly @IntaBruce ,

I'm happy you're clear now.
