Description

Being able to select which of the visuals in a report should be synchronized/filtered when using the functionality "Use as Filter" in the report.

Use Case and Business Need

A report displaying information about a global company, you want to use a map visual to filter some KPI in another visual but you would also want to keep the full overview for comparison purposes. Now, this is not possible and when a visual is used as filter all other visuals will be filtered using your selection.

    This is very disarable feature - users odnt want to filter all visuals , but just the selected one.

  • We are working in this direction. No ETA that we can communicate, but in a few months we will release our on-canvas filters which will already include an ability to determine who is impacted by the fillter.

  • Will be helpful.

  • Nice feature to have. Right now, I create another canvas to show the map without filtering and then go to the next canvas to filter using Data brushing. It would be nice to have a visual without filtering and others filter in the same canvas.

    It will save confusion. Let the user select.

  • Recently we introduce two features in this direction.

    1. On canvas filters that allow control as to which visualization they are impacting
    2. Visualization properties to decide which filter (project/canvas/on-canvas) is impacting them

    Currently, it does not apply to 'use as filter' but this is the next stage in this area.

  • Have you tried the new filter capabilities (5.7 and up) that provide control as to which viz is impacted but which filter?

  • Hi Gabby, 

    Not yet, our company is struggling to update our patches after 5.6. Both 5.7 and 5.8 failed to update in the lower environments and I could not test it yet. Looking forward to doing so.

  • Additionally, you can view the selected new features video playlist of 5.7 here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6gBNP-Fr8KVkoAS84vm1XbYEu_73o0E8
