Hide Values in Slicer
Trying to design some "buttons" by augmenting slicers. Please see below. Is there any way I can limit values in a slicer? For instance, I just want there to be the current week, last week, etc ... not the deselect or the blank option.
There is a bug that disables visual-level filters for slicers. You can workaround it by changing the slicer to another visualization (card or table or whatever), then selecting your visual-level filter (in your case, value is not blank), then changing the visualization back to a slicer. The filter won't actually show up in the slicer's visual-level filter menu, but it will still be applied.

Yes, this workaround was disabled a few months ago. Please vote on the following idea to bring it back:
