Ability to select multiple items in a chart say multiple bars, pie's etc and automatically have filters applied to all the existing reports. this helps to highlight anomalies and see all the surrounding reports changes as we do it and showcase risks/opportunities

As of the February update, we now support cross-highlighting across multiple visuals! You can read the details in my blog post: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-february-2018-feature-summary/#crosshighlight

RE: Ability to select multiple items in a report for cross-highlighting
This feature appears to have been altered during the Oct. 2018 release and limits the user to cross-highlight only selected visuals. When a visual has been filtered "ad-hoc" by cross-highlighting and hidden under the selection pane, the filter is released. In my opinion, this is not acceptable and forces the user to "anchor" down each bookmark
RE: Ability to select multiple items in a report for cross-highlighting
Is there a way to set the default to "ctrl+left click" for certain charts or tabs so that the user can dig into the visuals without having to hold the ctrl button? Not all of my users will be able to grasp the concept of holding ctrl+click so I'd like to set it as the default for them to just click. Thank you!
RE: Ability to select multiple items in a report for cross-highlighting
In PowerBI embed, how to be notified that multiple values are selected in different visuals?
dataSelected event only consider the last visual that has been clicked (and no dataUnSelected event exists)
RE: Ability to select multiple items in a report for cross-highlighting
As already asked by someone else:
How do you cross-highlight across multiple visuals on a Mac? Control click doesn't work (and previous workaround, Control double-click, doesnt work either.)
RE: Ability to select multiple items in a report for cross-highlighting
Seemed to be working last week, and then for some reason this no longer works. Usually held down Ctrl +Click and selected multiple items. Just downloaded March Update to make use of the Tool-tip reporting feature and now seem to somehow lose the ability to select multiple items. Any help with this?

RE: Ability to select multiple items in a report for cross-highlighting
It has been almost three months now. Do we have an expected date for such feature?
RE: Ability to select multiple items in a report for cross-highlighting
there is a work around . You can use a normal filter in combination with the "Text filter " visual of Microsoft . They both are pointed to the same column . You filter with the Text filter and then you check the values you want in the normal filter. You can continue doing this until you have all the values you want to select (The normal Filter should have "multiselect" on.
Hope it helps

PS the okviz filter is gut idea but never was stable
