update slicer selection based on visual selection

Hi there, I am working on a real estate project (PowerBI, September 2023 version), and I have the following question: Is there any way I can update my slicers based on my visual selection? For example, if I select a specific bar in a visual (NYC), I want my slicer to just show NYC (don't show the other cities). Thanks.

Hi @nickbeltran7 ,

 

Sorry, currently it's unsupported. You choose NYC This operation, in fact, is called highlighting. Highlighting does not have a screening effect.

The workaround here is to filter using a filter. The filter is located below. Make sure use the page level filters.
