Hierachy in bar chart

Hi,

I have a 2 level hierachy in a bar chart, the drilldown and selection on top level works fine, but the second level(bottom level) won't let me select one bar so I can control the display on some other charts on the dashboard.

bar selection on the bottom level not workingbar selection on the bottom level not working

normally yopu can select one bar on a bar chart if it is not a hierachy column:

hi, @Anonymous 

When you turn on drill down feature of one visual, you won't be able to select one bar.

So when you drill down to the hierarchy which you want, then just turn off the drill down feature of this visual, now you could select one bar.
