Have Filters Applied Only to Specific Visualizations

I have a filter on a BI sheet that filters all visualizations within that sheet. However, I want one of those visualizations to be excluded from that filter as it does not make sense to have that filter applied to this one visualization from a contextual point of view. How may I reflect such a custom filter need?

Two options I can think of:

  1. Apply the filter not at the page level but only on the visuals that need it.
  2. Make the filter into a slicer and use Format > Edit interactions to disable filtering specific visual(s).

For the latter, you can hide the slicer if you wish using the selection pane.

@AlexisOlson or create a measure that is pre-filtered and use this new measure into the visuals you want to filter, and in this case, you don't have to worry about filters/slicers/edit interactions, etc. There are tons of options, pick the one that works best for your scenario.

@Anonymous if you have page level filter you cannot exclude a visual, only option is to apply visual level filter and not to apply on the one which you want to exclude:
