Highlight all but one value

Hello,

 

Fairly easy question, not sure if there is an answer.

 

Highlighting a specific value is easy. Similar is for highlighting multiple values (by having pressed the ctrl). Is there an easy way to select all but one value? For example, I want to have highlighted every day but Sunday but without having to select the rest six.  

 

Thanks

    Hi Tasos,

     

    you can always filter Sunday out by entering the Weekday name variable in the Visual level filters. This will stop Sunday from showing at all in your graph. (see example with dates instead)

     

    If you want Sunday to still show but with a different colour, you can select a colour in the Data Colors section manually.

     

     

    Hope this helps!

      Thank you Hoho1,

       

      I am aware of this option, however, it is not what I am looking for in this case.

       

      Still, thank you for your time.

        Would you mind explaining in more detail what is it you're after?

    Hi Tasos,

     

    I can't see a way to do this by clicking on the visual.

     

    An alternative way would be to use the "visual level filter" where you can tick "select all" and then unselect the day you don't want to see.

      Hello alexei7,

       

      I was afraid that I may have this answer.

       

      I had thought this alternative solution, however, it is not what I am looking for, at least not in this case.  

       

      Still, thanks for your time.

    Hi Tasos,

     

    No. Currently, there is no easy way to highlight all column bars except one. The only way is to select item one by one as you mentioned.
