Hello AnkittM08,

When you add a transparent shape over the visual, it intercepts click and scroll events. This prevents the user from interacting normally with the visual’s scroll because it captures all mouse events (including scrolling). Power BI does not have a native setting to ‘ignore clicks but allow scrolling’ on an overlaid layer. Try using a Bookmark + Dedicated Page: create a separate page for the popup and use navigation via bookmark. This way, the popup does not need a transparent layer and keeps normal scrolling. Configure the button to navigate to this page with the context of the selected item.
