Filtering on invididual report objects

[Steves2]

I am trying to filter data on a PBI report on the product dimension. I am trying to get the three boxes that currently display 324 each to show:

Bikes = 150

Cars = 114

Buses = 60

But, without actually clicking on a filter.

I have tried Page Filter and Report filter, but it applies the filter to all the objects on the page.

Hey,

just mark one of the cards, add the column to the "Visual level filters" like in the image below, and select the element you want to use as filter:

Repeat the steps for the other two cards, and you're done-

You may consider, to break the interaction with other visuals, to make sure the cards always show what you want.

Thank you Tom, this seems to work.

Could I ask, how do you break the interactions with the other visuals?

Hey @Steves2,

this describes it pretty good

But in the meantime ´the icon has moved to another location:

1. Mark a visual in your report
2. Select the Format menu
3. Enable the Interaction Mode, using the far left "Edit Interactions" on the format ribbon.

Don't forget to disable the Interaction Mode, sometimes it takes me seconds wondering why my visuals won't work as usual 🙂

I use this quite often, whenever I want a visual to display a certain value, no matter what the audience is selecting on other viisuals or slicers, this helps me to avoid a measure that has the sole purpose to work on a visual, and in addition this measure will clutter up the fields list.
