Highlighting across pages
Dear all,
Is there a possibility to use highlighted visuals as a filter? Basically the same thing as a drilltrough but withoud using the right click. Our users don't want to use the right click. They rather want to highlight a visual and then use a button to get to the detaisl page.
Is there such a possibility?
Best,
Roman

Hi Anonymous,
From your description, I could not understand the sentence "use highlighted visuals as a filter", could you please offer me more information about it?

Hi Daniel,
As an example, we want to click on a bar from a bar chart where we see our sales by year (Let's say the sales from 2014). The exact products sold are on another page. Instead of right-clicking and drill-through we would like to click on a button and get to that page but with the context that we clicked (So that we would see the products we sold in 2014).
It is working with drillthrough, but our employees dont want to right click on that bar. They want to normally click on it and then use a button to see the details.
Hope this makes it clear

Hi Anonymous,
Based on my research, you could use the bookmarks and the buttons, see the below link:
