Drlldown by click

Hi everyone,

 

I inserted drilldown option in my custom bar visual through capabilities. 

 

Is it possible to drilldown by click on bar? 

 

If it is not available in API, how can I acces drilldown level in code?

 

Regards,

Yerkhan

Yes, it's possbile. You just need to implement Selection via SelectionManager.

@v-viig,

 

I've noticed, that described functionality already supports in regular stacked column chart. However, due to design, data entry and tooltips functionality, this visual not suitable for me. So, how can I achieve same functionality?

To support drill down you just need to add drilldown into capabilities.json and SelectionManager.

@v-viig,

 

I implemented drilldown in capabilities. However, I find it hard to set selection manager for hierarchy levels. Can I send code for examination and pointing my mistakes in selection manager?

@v-viig,

 

Thanks. So, if I implement selection manager, it will drill down automatically? Or should I set appropriate hierarchy level in code?

 

Also, I have slicers for every hierarchy level: categories for level 1, 2 and etc. How to set drill down if slicer for level 1 is used? 

So, it will look something like this:
