Make vega-lite selection only take effect on mouseup - vega-lite

Question

I would like to have an interval selection in a Vega-lite in which other data is filtered in response to the selection, but only after the user releases the mouse. For instance, consider this example where the user can filter the dates in a time series plot by selecting a range on another chart. As the user drags the selection in the bottom chart the top chart filters in real-time. What I would like to do is instead have the top chart only filter once the user has updated the selection in the bottom chart and released the mouse button.

Answer 1

Try this. It seems a bit awkward to me but does what you ask.
