I have a report page with multiple charts and visualizations. Let's say one of the chart shows Sales by Year and I drill down into 2013 to see the sales by month in 2013. Currently, the drill-down has no effect on the other charts and visualizations on the page; they still show data for all years, not just for 2013. Instead, I'd like other charts to drill down into 2013 or filter by 2013 as well.

Well this is exciting! We've just shipped the December release of Power BI Desktop, and I'm very pleased to say we've added the ability to apply filters from a visual when you drill into it. This is now the default for any new visuals; you can turn it on for existing visuals (or disable it if you don't want it) through the Format tab. Look for "Drilling filters other visuals". Hope you like it! thanks!

Please reopen the ticket. As others have said, the feature wasn't added in the way users requested. This is currently a major shortcoming in Power BI that needs to be fixed.

No sync for drill-down feature yet. This is a serious need that would be of great value if addressed!

This is not what we were expecting, We need the "expand hierarchy" to apply to all visuals at the same time

The present solution is not what we hoped for unfortunally. The other visuals need to be at the same level of detail, not just filter.

Pinging the fact that this feature is not truly complete. We need other visuals to "drill down" too.
Ex - I have a spark line next to a bar graph, if I drill one level down into the bar I would love to have the spark drill one level down as well.
