Hello Community,
i need a simultaneous drill down across multiple charts and over multiple pages with the same hierarchy. My hierarchy has 5 levels. At the moment, everytime when i select an item over a treemap, i have first to drill up and then drill down again another chart with the same hierarchy, to see the filtered/selected item from the treemap. What is the solution for a simultaneus drill down over all charts with the same hierarchy? If not, is there a reasonable workaround? I have about 12 other charts distributed over 7 pages that need to be drill down simultaneously with the same hierarchy.
My kind of questions was asked several times in the past with the answer that it is not possible. Some time passed by so i hope there is an update. This was also mentioned as a fabric idea in 2018(!!!) https://ideas.fabric.microsoft.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=46974e13-67ed-4e9d-ab4d-9f502af38780
Is this feature available in the meantime?
Hi @timtack ,
It is not possible to have a simultaneous drill down across multiple charts and over multiple pages with the same hierarchy in Power BI Desktop currently. I'm sorry for there is no update on the fabric idea that you mentioned.
Best Regards,
Stephen Tao

Hi @Anonymous ,
ok. Nevertheless thank you for your answer.
I have found a compromise. I created a new parameter with my hierarchy and to control that i set a synchronized slicer over all pages. I have replaced the Hierarchy as axis in my charts with the hierarchy parameter. So every chart is beeing synchronized by the slicer. There is no possibility to drill down individual charts, but i have no requirement for that. A synchronized "drill down/axis change" is important for me
