So, I have just started using Power BI and I am trying to visualize metrics on a shape map.
What I want is to select a metric and it will show on the map which regions contain this metric. A region contains of individual states.
An example below shows that Metric f is available for region 2 and 3. While the donut chart highlights the regions, the shape map is not updated. Only by clicking with CTR-click on the donut chart can I select the regions. What is going wrong here?

Thanks! Your comment made me take a look again at te file.
The solution was going to Manage Relationshipts --> Edit relationship and set the Cross filter direction to "both".
Set cross filter direction to 'Both' in the Edit relationship dialog and take a good look at Change how visuals interact in a report.
