When we select a part of a visual for example bar in the bar chart, we want the other visuals respond. In Cross Filtering, we may define the type of action that a cross filter does and which visuals to respond.

Sales dashboard when nothing is selected:

When Office Supplies in bar chart is selected, all visuals except the line chart respond:

In Performance by Location dashboard, when non of the states are selected on the map.

When an state is selected, Tree Map responds.

In Performance by Location dashboard, we have OrderDate time slicer and also segment filter. We may define which visuals these filters apply. An issue may occure for Top N as these filters are Dimension Filter operating after Top N filter. It is reasonable that such filters operate before Top N. We want Top 10 states by Sales while date if filtered to 2017 and 2018 and NOT Top states by sale while considering all dates and then filtering results to 2017 and 2018. To fix the issue, Order Date and Segment filters need to be promoted to Context Filter.
