Only Show data that are part of the filter

Hi all,


Is there any way I could hide the Measure that is not part of the filter data?

 

Below what I mean.

Default view

When I clicked on Value by group 1 (light blue box)

As you can see, the Value by category bar chart also shows category B & C, which has 0 Value because they are not part of Group 1. Is there any way I could show the only Measure that is part of the filter data? In this case, only ‘A’ will appear in the bar chart.


This is a default filter function in Tableau, but it looks like not in Power BI.


Does anyone come across any workaround on what I want to achieve?

 

Cheers,
Kev

Hi, @BigKev 

 

Based on your description, you may click 'File'=>'Options and settings'=>'Options', set as below.

Then you need to restart Power BI desktop to apply the feature.

You may also use Edit interaction  to achieve the same result.

@BigKev , You have the option of cross highlight and Cross filter. You can  change those from Edit interactions

I think you want to explore the difference between cross-highlighting and cross-filtering.
