One-Click Power BI Filter Removal

Hello there,I have an issue regarding accidentally selecting a parameter on a table/graph and needing to deselect it by clicking the same area again. While this is convenient, with large sets of tables and data, it can be difficult to identify where the initial click occurred.

Is there a button available to create a 'cancel current selection' feature? I am not referring to the 'unselect all filters' button because sometimes you may want to keep a specific filter active and only remove the latest selection made by clicking on a table or graph.

This would allow for maintaining a broader filter selection, such as the year being viewed (not shown in this example).

 

(example of the touch-filter in the graph)

Thank you, and please let me know if I was unclear. 

Best regards,
