Setting left click behavior for data points to unlock tens of different UX scenarios

Allowing report designers to set default left click interaction of data points can unlock tens of new UX possibilities with a single feature.

This feature can be added to all visuals which includes a data point selection. E.g., Table, Matrix, Map, Pie Chart, Bar Chart, etc.

Proposed UX Mockup

Proposed options with key benefits and use cases:

• Make Selection is the default option which is current behavior of all visuals. It allows filtering or highlighting other visuals.
• Drill Down option sets default interaction to make drill operation in current visual. (Already available functionality using header icons)
• Drill through option fulfills one the most requested feature from community (forums and ideas.powerbi.com): single, left-click drill through from any data point.
• Page navigation option unlocks new possibilities including dynamic page list in a grid, and each navigation without adding navigation button and second click requirement.
• Bookmark option allows using any visual as bookmark navigator, now with data/measure driven bookmark lists, allowing even RLS!
• Web URL option unlocks existing Web URL conditional formatting option in table and matrix to any visual, including maps, charts etc.
• None option allows report creator to make any visual read only, similar to Power BI Dashboard tiles, without adding extra transparent layers to force any visual to be not interactive.
• Behave Transparent option brings additional UX tricks, such as adding a watermark on top of a visual but allowing selection on the visual at bottom or adding a custom icon on top of slicer to make erase icon always visible. (pointer-events: none)
