Highlight filter when filter is used

Dear reader,

 

Please help me out. In my dashboard I have various filter options (dropdowns). My end-user would like to have the filters highlighted when used, but I can not figure out how to solve this in the visual options. For example, my dropdown box is now lightgrey, but when selected/used i would like to make it a darker colour. In the section when you can wright down 'if/or --> then' it only selects som. But That is not a solution for me. I hope someone can help me out. Thanks in advance!

 

Kind regards,

 

Jochem

Hi @Flappy8Flapjack ,

 

As far as I know, Power BI only support us to filter the visuals by filter field or slicer. If you want to highlight your visual, I suggest you to create a visual (not slicer) and then use cross-highlight in Edit interactions option.

For reference:

Change how visuals interact in a Power BI report

Filters and highlighting in Power BI reports

Result is as below.

Not sure why answer was accepted as solution, but question wasn't about higlighting the visuals, but about highlighting the slicers which are in use with different colour.
