Solved

Need help with report filter.

Trying to figure out something that should be simple.  The chart on the top is showing goods sold for 5 different products in 7 different regions.   Each region has 7 to 10 stores.  When I click on product B in region 2 in the chart above is there a way to then populate sales by store in region 2 for product B in the smaller chart below when I select that bar above.   I have incorporated into my data model a table that lists the store numbers in each region.  Many thanks for anyone that can point me in the right direction.

    Thanks for your help.   I was able to get that working, but above you have selected one column of the cluster (Product B for region 2)   That's exaclty what I want to do but I don't have the ability to select the individual columns in region 2.  I must have missed something.    Thanks.

    Hi nhale 

    Check your visual format. Add Region in Axis, Product in Legend and Sales in Values in your cluster column chart.

    Download the latest version of Power BI Desktop and try again. 

    You can download my sample file and check the differences between you and mine.

    Change the default behavior from cross highlighting to cross filtering.

    Hi  nhale

    In addition to lbendlin 's reply, use Edit interactions in Format Tab and change cross-highlighting in small visual to cross-filtering.  

    I build a sample to have a test.

    Build two visuals like yours.  Click on Edit interactions.

    Then select cluster column chart and select left icon(Cross-filter) in small visual.

    Result is as below.

    For reference: Change how visuals interact in a Power BI report
