Visual Interactions

When I make graphs with 'Visual Interactions' command, I choose 'Filter' command and I need the 'Filter' data.

But few days later, the graph automatically switch 'Highlight' data. Please let me know if anyone has ideas.

Is it possible that the graph is active state as 'Filter' data?

Hi @Erii,

 

According to your description, it seems that you are configure the interaction settings in Power BI Servcie report, right?

BAsed on my test, if we check the source visual and enable Visual Interactions, then select filter icon pbi-filter-icon-outlined.png in other visuals. The Filters settings are always active.

 

In your scenario, please check if anyone has permission to edit this report, make sure the report is the original one. And which visuals are source visual and impacted vsiuals?

Hi @Erii It should not behave like this. Is this issue with Power BI Desktop or Power BI App? In case of desktop, did you updated your version in between?
