Why each option
In Splunk, clicking a segment on a chart filters the search by adding that segment's field value to the search criteria.
Drilling down as a separate navigation action is not what a single segment click triggers; clicking appends the value as a search filter rather than opening a distinct drill-down view.
Highlighting the field value across the chart is a hover behavior, not a click behavior; clicking performs a search filter action.
When a user clicks a segment such as a pie slice or a bar on a Splunk chart, Splunk automatically appends that field value as an additional filter to the current search string. This scopes the search to events matching that specific value, effectively drilling into the data through the search bar.
