I have 7 boolean filters as buttons. When one of them is selected "true" all the other ones automatically take "false" and lock the value. When these same filters are in dropdown format, no other values can be selected when the "false" values get locked.
This is not how it should work. Multiple filters can be "true" at a time. The filters do not depend on each other, they're not connected at all.
As seen the in image below, another filter is selected "true". The Education filter has automatically taken the value "false" and the value "true" is not showing.
How do I fix this issue? Thanks.
I think that what you're seeing is that filters do update other filters. What this implies to me is that your data doesn't have any rows where the other filter and Education both have a "true" value. So when the other filter is updated to "true", Looker Studio knows that there aren't any "true" rows for Education and removes that option. It's like when I select "California" for a state filter, and then the city filter only displays cities in California. I find this helpful - I wouldn't want to select a city that isn't in California, because then I'd just get zero results back.
I don't think there's any way to decouple filters from each other while having them apply to the same chart. I know that you can group different filters to different charts, but as soon as you group two filters to the same chart they will listen to each other.
