How to Select Multiple points (bubbles) on the Map Visualization?

Does anyone know how to select multiple bubbles on the map visual? I know I can hold CTRL and make multiple selections, but I really need to be able to draw an area with my mouse and make that the selection of all bubbles in the area I drew. Spotfire and Arcmap do this easily, surely this can be done in PowerBI?? I can't figure it out. If I hold SHIFT it looks like it is making a selection but it is just zooming in on the area drawn, not selecting anything. Thanks

    Maybe try a slicer with locations, and only click the locations you want to see?

    Hi geopetal 

    Default Map in Power BI doesn't support this feature currently. 

    You could share your idea in Power BI Idea forum so that it may be taken into consideration in further version of power bi.

    You could also add Arc Map in Power BI as a workaround.
