Hello - we're using a treemap visual to mask data under certain conditions in a report. The visual should be completely transparent, until a filter which triggers the conditions of the visual are selected, then the visual displays, covering the contents of the report until the correct filters are applied.
We've configured the colors of the report, turned off the border, background, etc, however there still seems to be a border (perhaps an inner border) around the visual. (see screencap.)
Anyone have any ideas as to how to configure it to be completely invisible until triggered?
Thank you!
Reviving this topic. I wasn't able to get the pesky border out. It is the border of the tile and not the treemap viz. I used a column chart instead and set all the colors to transparent.
KPI on the left using the column chart. KPI on the right using the treemap visual.
Thanks @Icey
We've abandoned this idea and moved forward to find another solution. Appreciate your reply!
What does the visual look like when triggered? It's hard to guess what property it is without seeing the whole thing.
From your screenshot that looks like a border around the pie chart, in my trials with treemap I am not getting any phantom borders.

Thanks for your reply - we're going to need to try an alternate solution, as this one works to safeguard sensitive data, but prevents users from interacting with the visual under the treemap...
