display no data until interacted visualization is selected

I am using PowerBI desktop to build a report.  I have a map and a line chart that interact, they work great.  When I select a data point plotted on my map, the line chart displays the data correctly.  This looks great when I have selected a point on the map, but before that when the line chart is displaying data for all points it looks like a big blob of data ugliness and doesn't make sense.

 

Can I configure my line chart or use another chart that displays no data, until a point on my map is selected?

 

Thanks,

 

Mike

Thanks ImkeF, this is amazing, however it doesn't work on multiple selection. (Using CTRL on windows)

That's why he's called "HASONEFILTER". Thought this was what's been requested 🙂

If you want to make it show up on multiple filter selection, try ISFILTERED.
