Is it possible to select a glyph based on its name?

I have a bunch of plots that use different data with different x and y values – I want to create a dropdown that lists some of these by name so that when I click on the right name in the dropdown, any glyphs with the matching name are selected in all plots. Is that possible? My javascript is kind of weak.

Hi @RR_Turing ,

I bet we can come up with a little example. When you say “name,” what exactly do you want to be in the dropdown? Is it DataFrame column names, so that any glyph using that column as its source is then selected?
