Fitlering down data using a Line and Clustered Column Chart

Does anyone know how to filter down data on a second visual by clicking clicking on the line portion of a line and clustered column chart?  It looks as though the bar portion of the chart can be used to filter down data displayed in another visual. 

 

For example, I have a line and clustered column chart that displays current year payment data (by month) with the bars and prior year payment data (by month) with the line.  I would like to click on a bar for a specific month so that a second visual shows the current year payment data broken out by payment terms.  Then, if I click the line for a specific month, then second visual would show the prior year payment data broken out by payment terms. 

 

Would be a nice feature because the line and clustered column chart is a great option of the initial visual (as opposed to simply a clustered column chart).

Hi @RevJoe,

 

Can you please share some detail information about this issue? It seems works on my side.

 

When I drill down one of years data to month level and click on one bar, other visuals will show the selected value.

Thank you for the reply!!!

 

What I am hoping to accomplish is to be able to filter down other visuals when selecting the line portion of the Line and Clustered Column Chart.  I do not have any issues filtering down when selecting the a column, but I would hope to see similar filtering when selecting a value on the line portion of this visual also.

Hi @RevJoe,

 

Current Line and Clustered Column Chart only support to filter with legend, it not support filter with axis(line). You can submit a idea to ideas forum.

 

BTW, line chart also not support filter with axis.
