cannot filter a cell in matrix visual

Hi

I am using the matrix visual in 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 the matrix to filter the other visuals in the report. However, when I click on a cell, the whole row gets filtered instead of the partiuclar cell. Can someone plese help? Thank you in advance.

Hi @NafisM,

 

I'm a little confused about your scenario, do you cannot click the value in Matrix to filter the values in other visual or you cannot use Drill down feature?

 

For click the value in Matrix to filter the value in other visual, you could refer to the gif below.

Hi Cherry,

 

Thank you for your response. I am not being able to filter a particular cell. From the GIF that you provided, I would like to do the same, but not filter the other visuals based on information in the row (in your case row being the Agegroup) rather filter it based on the values. Please let me know if that is possible.

 

Thank you.
