Table visual changes unexpectedly when I click on a row on itself?

Hi Zhinee ,
Thanks for posting in Microsoft Fabric Community.This behavior is expected in Power BI.
When you click on a field (or cell) in a table visual, it acts as a filter:
-
It filters other visuals on the page based on model relationships.
-
It also affects the visual you clicked on.
In most cases, the table visual will filter itself to show only the selected row.
However, if you click on a specific field (cell) instead of the entire row, Power BI may highlight the selected value (with a gray background) while keeping the other rows visible.In your scenario, when you click on a row in the Session Status table, it filters all other visuals that are related to it.
Then, when you click on a row in the Joblet Status table, the filtering context now starts from there - meaning Joblet Status becomes the active filter and applies its filtering to other connected visuals, such as Joblet Detail Log.Regarding Edit Interactions - this only controls how one visual affects other visuals.
You won't see a "None" (⦸) icon appear over the visual you're currently interacting from. So it's not possible to stop a visual from responding to its own clicks using Edit Interactions.Hope this helps. Please reach out for further assistance.

Thanks,
That explains the behavior I am seeing.
Now I am using a CTRL+Click to do multiple selection on different visuals.
