Has anyone seen the "highlight dummy" approach fail? What is happening to me is the the non-selected items are no longer faded out, but they are turning to a background of yellow.

 

Dashboard is proprietary - blurred results below.

 

Highlight dummy is set to a value of 'a', it's on Detail, first pill on marks card. Dashboard Highlight action is on select from/to the worksheet you see.

 

Similar to this:

    Hi @Diego Martinez​

    Since I came across this and just did something else instead, I'll provide the workbook. Using the True=True method to highlight all bars in a bar chart (therefore highlighting none of the bars) doesn't translate to tables, where all highlighted values become yellow. I'd also like to keep a selection without fading out the other values in the table (but also without making them all yellow).
