How can I pause filter?

Currently I am using two bar charts and map. 

 

Both bar charts something looks like this, first represts the sealine (Parent chart) and second about the container.

Here I would like to apply filter so I can saw the specific container route in a map. for example, from couple of sealine need to select spefic sealine i.e, HLCU. it could saw only HLCU's containers only in second chart.  like below.

The issue is if I click on that filtered container its selects from all containers. Like, From HLCU fitered four containers but if I am trying to select containers from that filtered ones its select from all.

My question is how Can I pause this filter, so I can select HLCU any one containers from only HLCU containers? not from all like last image. my desire output would like second image just I need to be able to select one perticular container from that five HLCU containers.

Hi

Try to keep "Ctrl" (it will maintain current filters) + Click to make many filters on many visual.

Hello @HoangHugo  Thank you very much for your reply. 

 

Excatly thats the feature I am looking for, but not with 'CTRL' key. One more drow back with 'CTRL' key is its allows to select multiple bars where in my situation need to select only one at time.

Is it possible set up this?
