Hi All, Is it possible to filter by clicking on the labels shown on the y-axis of the graph.
For example in the following images, if i click on Y-axis labels referring to a country column should filter another visual. Actions work by clicking on the bar graph but my question is more about applying filter by clicking on the label. Thank you!!
Filter actions are typically triggered by interacting with data points such as bars, lines, or specific elements of visuals. Unfortunately, as of now, doesn’t support filter actions directly from clicking on the y-axis labels. Actions only work by selecting the bars, lines, or segments in the visual itself.
Workaround:
- Create a table visual next to your chart displaying the country names.
- Enable filter actions on the table visual to filter other visuals when a country name is clicked.
- Add a filter control for the country column, allowing users to select a country directly from a dropdown.
This way, users can click on a country name in the table or filter control to filter other visuals, closely mimicking the experience of clicking on y-axis labels.

Hi Xclipse, Thank you so much for your response. Is it possible to raise a Feature request for this functionality?
Great suggestion! Addition of this feature is very helpful. I’ve marked this as a feature request.
