When clicking on certain elements of a visual, I can control the interaction this selection has on other visuals within the report, but I was wondering if there is the ability to completely disable the clickability of a visual? I don't want the end users to be able to click on the visual at all, so neither the selected visual or other visuals would be highlighted? Tooltips should still be viewable on hover.
This feature should be available for use in both service and desktop.
More information on the unsuccessful attempts people have made trying to achieve this with graphs/charts can be found here:

RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
This is needed urgently. I am creating some quite complex reports with repeated, but slightly different slicers which need to interact with different charts. For each item I have to go through and disable interactions with dozens of objects on the page - and for many of them I have to resize the item just to get to the interaction items.
This whole UI for interactions needs some serious work to improve it.
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
Agree, very frustrated to change interactions for each and every visual manually. Especially when it's a dummy slicer that should not interact with anything. Turning off interactions in bulk will also improve performance of the reports.
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
Just one more easy and effective way to disable all the interactions in one page could be great!
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
We need a disable all interactions feature asap, doing this manually where you have 10s of visuals is a nightmare!
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
I am not sure why this option is not there, i have wasted 3+ hours today for interactions with the page with 50+ visuals. This could have done in 15 minutes with this option.

please add!
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
Yes, this is still needed!
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
A simple Control + Click which sets the same Filter/Highlight/None interaction between the selected visualization and all other eligible visuals on the page would be an immense time/frustration saver.
As the original poster laments, navigating these selections within a compact design is problematic.

Same issue
RE: Disable visual highlighting and interactions
There is a setting I have just found under options > CURRENT FILE >> Query Reduction, the tick disabling cross highlighting/filtering by default. Might help here.
