Steps to Configure the Tree map Filter:

  1. Enable Tree map:

    • Add data to the category field in visualization pane.

    • Navigate to Hierarchy Filter and click on the Tree Map option to display a tree map in the visual.

  2. Filter Data:

    • Interact with the tree map by clicking on individual items or clicking and dragging to select multiple items.

    • The visual will dynamically filter data based on your selections.

Format Pane Options:

Navigate to the Format Pane, then go to Hierarchy, select Mode as Tree Map to access the following options.
