Non-Selected Item Colors - Turn off Color/Opacity/Transparency Changes When Item is Selected?

When you click on an item in a visual and it changes the color of non-selected items -- Is there a way to adjust the how much the colors get adjusted (e.g. with a theme element) or turn off that feature?  

 

The issue here is in a Mapbox drilldown choropleth map, I am using a color range to denote different values.  But, when I click on a shape (census tract) to select it, the census tract gets filled with the highlight color and all other colors are lightened out to the extent they're almost indistiguishable.   This seems to inherit from Power BI which would grey out or fade non-selected items.

 

e.g. here:

 

With no census tract selected shades of green distinguishable from each other:

with census tract selected -- colors are much less distinguishable

Agreed. We'd like to be able to control the transparency of the non selected items. In the example above, we'd like to make everything that isn't Negative to be almost invisible, if not invisible.

Try selecting the Drill Through in Data/Drill option for your map, it will disable the drill through to the data on selection.

Thanks but I don't notice a change in coloration behavior.  Users are still able to select a geographic area even though it doesn't drill through, and colors of non-selected items become muted.  This is similar to behavior on other visuals.  If you click on a slice of a pie chart, or bar of a bar chart, that color stays same and others go muted.

 

e.g.

click on 'negative':

This is the same muting of colors I'm seeing in my chart, so I am wondering if I can use a setting in the theme to minimize this, and would be especially good to minimize only on the map visual.
