cannot choose a cell in power bi matrix

Hi 

I am currently using the Matrix visual for my report. As far as I know, the updated Power BI (https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-march-feature-summary/#matrix) lets you choose a cell in a matrix which then filters the other visuals in the report. However, when I click on a cell, the whole row gets filtered instead of the cell getting filtered. Can someone please help me? Thank you in advance.

hi,@NafisM

     Did you update to the latest version of Power BI DeskTop,it works well.

and I have tested on my side, but not reproduce the issue. and we need more detail steps for us.

For example,

i have a matrix and other visual
