How to Use a table of Target Values for Filtered Gauge Charts

I have a table of target values updated based on management decisions and would like to use that for the target values in a gauge chart to look at all the metrics for a single client. When I filter the visual based on client the target value disappears. How do I fix this? 

 

Using formatting to manually insert "2" I get what I want, but I want to be able to regularly quickly update the targets for a large number of gauges.

 

Clients

PersonComplaintsDays LateForm Errors
Angel Saint000
Damian Demon50100200
Joe Normal2110

 

Targets:

ComplaintsDays LateForm Errors
2110

 

Using the value from the Targets table I get this:

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Do you want to display your Complaints, Days Late, Form Errors in a gauge visual?

It sounds difficult, but you can try tooltips. When you hover over a data point, other field data related to it is displayed.

No, that wasn't my question. I want to have a series of gauge visuals for each variable. My problem is that the target variable marker disappears when I filter the data if I do not hard code it in the formatting. I would like to use my table of target values as the data of the targets. (The first image shows the error, and the second shows what I want.)
