Interactivity

A filter allows selecting one or more tools. When a tool is selected, all charts and KPIs update to show data only for the selected tools. For example, selecting Tableau alone shows its KPIs and highlights it in charts.

Self Check

If you add a filter to select only "Power BI", which components update and what values do they show?

• KPI Cards update to show Power BI's User Satisfaction (85%) and Market Share (24%).
• Bar Chart updates to show only Power BI's User Satisfaction bar.
• Pie Chart updates to show only Power BI's Market Share as 100% of filtered data.
• Feature Ratings chart updates to show Power BI's rating (8).

Key Result

Dashboard shows why Tableau leads in visual analytics by comparing user satisfaction, market share, and feature ratings across tools.
