Visual to Slicer relation

Hello to all!
On a Power BI, there are:

- clustered bar charts

- slicers

 

When I select a value in the slice, the clustered bar charts will only display the corresponding data. That works fine.

When I select a value in the clustered bar chars, I expect the slicers to display only the corresponding value too. However, this is not the case. I checked the Relations and they are not locked.
I wonder whether I'm simply doing something wrong or that is the normal behaviour.

Hi @EVEAdmin 

That's what it's supposed to do. The slicer is a filter so the values it shows remain even when you filter other visuals.

If filtering a visual also filtered the slicer that would inhibit/remove the purpose of the slicer.
