How to Edit Interactions on New Card visual?
What you’re seeing is expected behavior for the New Card visual in Microsoft Power BI—it supports data point selection, which behaves like a cross-filter even though it doesn’t fully participate in Edit Interactions (yet). That mismatch is exactly why it feels confusing.
Why this happens
The New Card visual allows clicking on category values (like Years).
That click creates a filter context for the page (similar to selecting a bar in a chart).
However, unlike charts, it doesn’t expose interaction controls in Edit Interactions, so you can’t disable it the usual way.
