How to stop filtering from one visualization to other visualization in Power BI Desktop
Hi Guru_BI,
Thank you rohit1991,lbendlin for your insights.
Power BI behaves this way because, by default, visuals cross-filter each other. Selecting a point in Scatter Plot 1 will automatically filter Scatter Plot 2. To stop this, go to Edit interactions and set the interaction from Scatter Plot 1 to Scatter Plot 2 to None.

Power BI cannot stop visual-to-visual filtering for scatter charts.
Scatter plots do not support “Edit Interactions >> None”, which is why you are not seeing the disable option. For this visual type, cross-highlighting is always enabled and cannot be turned off.
So if you click a point in Scatter Chart 1, Scatter Chart 2 will always get filtered this behaviour cannot be disabled in Desktop.
