Hello - I have a simple clustered column chart:
When I select an item on the legend, the chart will highlight accordingly:
However, instead of highlighting action, I want filtering action, where only the series selected in the legend is visible and all other bars do not appear. I know this can be solved by using a slicer, but I only want to use the legend, primarily because there is not enough room for a slicer. Is there a setting to toggle the action of clicking on a series in the legend between filter and highlight instead of only highlight?
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
@mstone3 Go to the Format menu and choose Edit Interations. Select one of the visuals. Change the interaction to filter instead of cross highlight.

@Greg_Deckler thanks very much for this suggestion - I see it does work when interacting with another visual, but in this case it's a standalone visual. Using the legend selections within the visual, I would like to filter the visual, but legend selections only result in highlighting behavior.
Thanks!
Just in case, maybe "right click" and "Include" make the trick you're looking for.
@mstone3 I know of no way to modify that behavior.
