When clicking on certain elements of a visual, I can control the interaction this selection has on other visuals within the report, but I was wondering if there is the ability to completely disable the clickability of a visual? I don't want the end users to be able to click on the visual at all, so neither the selected visual or other visuals would be highlighted? Tooltips should still be viewable on hover.
This feature should be available for use in both service and desktop.
More information on the unsuccessful attempts people have made trying to achieve this with graphs/charts can be found here:

Would save a lot of time indeed!
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
Agree, would save a lot of time!
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
I have the same issue too , this is too important, currently MS supply the feature of interaction so that I can say do not filter other visuals when I click this visual, however, the MS does not give me expect feature, when I click the visual, other visuals get back to "no fitler" status which means they lost their original filter, this is too bad.
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
Agreed - adding one button to disable interactions with all other visuals will be a great help.
It also would be greate if we can select option that edited visual can interact with only currently selected visuals, which should prevent interactions with newly added visuals.
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
Agreed - would like this for when I want a slicer to filter only one visual, and not have to edit those interactions every time I add a new graph or element to the report page! This can very easily lead to issues with validity of the report and will decrease user confidence in the numbers if a slicer incorrectly filters an element.

This is very necessery feature specially when we use Bookmarks massively. Please add this options ASAP. Thanks
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
Please add this feature.

This would make my life a lot easier. Sometimes when you have multiple charts on the same page, it gets confusing when you click on the last one and the previous selections get reverted back to all values instead of your prior selections
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
Please! It would save us lot of valuable time!
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
This is similar to the idea here, and im voting twice! https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/18394642--copy-paste-interactions-or-disable-all-interact ...
A great implementation of this would be: When the Edit Interactions button is clicked the Filter and Dont Filter options were listed next to every visual in the Pane. Then by highlighting the visual in question we could quickly see and modify which other visuals it interacts with.
