Ignore visual-level filters when interacting with other visuals

Hi all,

 

I want to have an interaction between visuals set to "highlight".

I have 2 visuals, and each of those 2 contains a filter (from the same column, but different value).

When I try to set interaction to highlight a visual is broken. I am sure this is happening because the visual level filter is applied to another visual I'm interacting with.

 

Is it possible to ignore visual-level filters when interacting with other visuals?

 

Thanks.

    My solution could work if you have those filters set as slicers. You can then set them to interact with some visuals but not the others.

    Hi, 

     

    You can set how specific visuals should interact with others. Click "Format" and then "Edit Interactions". I hope it will sort out your problem. 

     

    Kind regards,

    Daniel

      Hi Daniel,

       

      Thanks for your response. 

      I think you didn't understand what I'm trying to do. I have a specific filter on both visuals. I don't want the filter from one visual to be applied to another visual when I set interaction to "highlight" between those visuals.
