The edit interactions is between visuals within a page, the page filters are already linked to the visuals on your page and slice your informtion on that report. How many visuals do you have on your page? And what type of.visuals? Depending on that the edit interactions may or not be available.

I have 7  visuals, (Matrix, curves...) i have blocked interaction between all visuals and the one i don't want to be interacted with them.

So if i understand well, this page filters bellow  will anyway slice the visual i don't want to be updated?

    Correct what page filter do is filter the data that is visible in all the page not only for one visual it affects all your page.

    You should place them at lhe visuals level for all you want to be affecet by.

      In this case when i try to select a value from my filter which is placed in a visual level, it affects only one visual, so since i have 5 other visulas that i want them to be affected, i'll have to update this value in each filter level, so globally i'll  have to update the same value 6 times ??

        Hi NadaBen,

         

        I don't know how your visuals are setup but if you only have one visual that don't need to be affected by the overall filters, try to do a summarize table with the values you need.

         

        This new table will get the information from your previous table however it's not affected by the visual if the columns of this new table is not placed in the page filters.

         

         

        Regards,
