How do I get my visual to only show what is shown in my slicer selection?

Hello - I am trying to get my visual sideways barchart to only show what is selected in the slicer. But for some reason it does not. How do I fix this? Screenshot attached!

Thanks in advance!

Hello @Anonymous. Does the value for slicer and bar chart comes from different tables. If yes, you have to define relationship between the two tables and set the cross filter direction. Also if your slicer and bar char are on different pages, you may want to sync slicer across pages. Hope it helps.
