    Nothing remains greyed out, but the highlight is still there.
    I am working on filtering/removing filters across dashboards... and having that highlight acts as a selection (preventing user from making a different choice on the other dashboard) even though we have covered the grey selections

    So, that is a nice feature. What about the reset button itself? i notice it stays highlighted as well when you click it. Mine does that and it will not remove the highlight until i click it again.

    I am having 3 dashboards with global filters (with drop down). This visual filters removing highlights effect is only working with the single dashboard visuals, but the global filters are not updating (showing all values). How to make our disabling highlight functionality to effect the global filters as well?

    Hey Anthony, thanks for the video. The removal of the highlight is great, but one thing that bugs me is that the button still looks selected even when the highlight and filter are both cleared. Any thoughts on that?

      I don't have a step by step video build for this dashboard (those take a lot of time to make) but you can find my Tableau Public page and download the workbook for reverse engineering.

    thank you for the video
    how if we want to do the same thing to another chart sir? for example "bar char by hour"
    should we create a different action (highlight)?

      I've felt your pain. Many stakeholders believe that Tableau means automated Excel tables in lieu of visualization. It becomes an opportunity to educate if possible.

      If you have your dashboard half built and you are looking for a specific solution, I agree it can get impatient times before getting to the exact solution/bit of information you need.
      The creator does not know what YOU need, and will create content for the wider audience to better provide context.
      And this type of content (non-entertainment type) is not designed for views (read revenue), its meant to share knowledge. The ownness is on the seeker to find what they need.
