You have a scatter chart showing sales vs. profit by product. Users want to hover over a data point to see the product's market share and the number of units sold without cluttering the chart. You also want to ensure that hovering over the chart does not highlight or filter other visuals on the page. What should you do?

Add market share and units sold as additional fields in the scatter chart's tooltips section, and set the chart's visual interactions to 'Filter'.

Create a custom tooltip page with market share and units sold, assign it to the scatter chart, and set the chart's visual interactions to 'No visual interactions'.

Create a bookmark that shows a hidden table with market share and units sold, and set the scatter chart's interactions to 'Highlight'.

Use the 'Drillthrough' feature to open a detail page with market share and units sold, and set the scatter chart's interactions to 'None'.

A report has a matrix visual and a pie chart. The analyst wants the matrix to be filtered when the pie chart is clicked, but NOT when the matrix is clicked. The report also has a synced slicer that should continue to filter both visuals. Users have personalization enabled and may change the matrix's fields. What should the analyst do?

Use the Selection pane to group the matrix and pie chart so they do not interact.

Edit the matrix's visual interactions and set the pie chart to 'No impact'. Leave the pie chart's interaction as 'Filter' for the matrix.

Disable personalization for both visuals to ensure interactions remain consistent.

Edit the pie chart's visual interactions and set the matrix to 'No impact'.
