How to disable interaction on a column bar

   

Hi Guys,

 

How do I disable one value in the X-axis from being filtered as in the pictures below?  The is a total bar that should not interact with any selection on the page.

 

Thanks in advance!

@BGB , these things work well, if the filter is from a separate dimension. Like I am showing Brand from the item and trying to remove the filter on the Geography table.  That works, But if you  wants to remove from member item dimension, this might not work well

This function does not like too many filters in filter panel. I put my filters in measure and it works well!

@amitchandak Thanks for that. I did both measures but still filtered when I added to the clustered column chart.

I'm starting to think this could be only be achieved by custom visuals. I tried building a visual in charticulator, but no option to disable a bar in the chart.

Would you please let me know if you find anything?

There appears to be a bug in the ALL and Removefilters function. 

 

Has anyone experienced this? please help

@amitchandak  Thanks, but after clicking all categories, the total seemed to change. Not sure if this is a bug. Please see the picture below.

Bug- Total reduced e.g March from 110 to 106.. see picture below

@BGB , You can not do partial interactions. You need to create measure with all or removefilters of slicer/column you do not want to filter

 

all value = calculate([Meausre], all(Table[Col])

 

all value = calculate([Meausre], removefilters(Table[Col])
