Funnel Visualization doesn't filter other visuals on same page

Hello, 

This is my first post.  Forgive me if there is a better way to seek information, but I cannot find anyone else speaking about a challenge I am encountering.  I've created a significant report via Power BI desktop, Version: 2.74.5619.862 64-bit (October 2019). My data set has many measures, dax-created columns, etc.  Everything operates as I expect except for one aspect.  I cannot make a funnel visualization filter or highlight other visualizations on its same page. I use the "edit interactions" visual tool and can see that each icon is selected on the other visuals.  "Drilling filters other visuals" is checked--and it seems I cannot uncheck it even if I wanted to do so. Then, when I click on any item within the funnel, that item selects and highlights, but no other items on the page are affected.  I have no such problem with ANY other visualization type--only the funnel seems to malfunction.  More, clicking on other visualizations on the page filters the funnel without issue.  That one-way filter interaction success only vexes me further.  I have tried to troubleshoot via various approaches.  I have made no progress.  Thank you for any insight you may offer.  I appreciate your time and consideration. -Adam

Thank you for your comment, Qiuyun Yu. I appreciate your assistance.  That form of "edit interactions" troubleshooting was something I had utilized in my exploration of this challenge.  Alas, that wasn't the problem.

 

I submitted a ticket and spoke with a Microsoft team member today. My issue is addressed and I was at fault.  She helped me realize my error.  I was creating funnel visualizations using only values, forgoing any "group." In order for a funnel to filter other visuals, both group and value fields must be utilized.

Hi @adam_hohman

 

Please turn on Edit Interactions then select the Funnel chart, ensure the Filter icon is ON in other visuals which you would like to pass filters to.
