Hi,

Yes, to click back it is necessary to push Ctrl button.

 

Also about the other question. There is a way to use a Slicer as a Drillthrough launcher. If you select the slicer and go to "Data/Drill" menu on top, there is a new button to make it "drillthrough". Watch the image 

 

But...there is a problem, when I click and go to the drillthrough page, and then come back, this option has been deactivated automatically and I have to click the button to make the slicer a drillthrough launcher again...I think it might be a bug.

 

I hope some PBI stuff could confirm this issue.

 

Best regards!

Alvaro

AlvaroCarmona wow this is cool.

 

I just tried this one. And yes, as you said when i returned to previous page that option will be disabled.

 

One more thing that i have observed is, this option is not availbale at powerbi service level. 

 

AlvaroCarmona have you checked this?. 

 

Am i missing anythig here. Is it availbale at service level.?

    Anonymous,

     

    I have tested it on my local environment, we can reproduce this issue. We need to Ctrl+Click on this back button to back to previous page. The expected result should be:
    When you click this button in reading mode or ctrl+click on this button in editing mode, you will be taken back to the page you were on before.

     

    I have report this issue internally, I will post here if there are any updates.

     

    Regards,

    Charlie Liao

      v-caliao-msft thank for the reply.

       

      Please dont forget to update if you come up with a solution for this.

       

      And also please look in to the DrillThrough option for slicer as i mentioned above one of the reply.

       

      It is not working at service level.

       

      Thanks,

        I jus found that the drillthrough feature for slicer is also availbale at service level.

        But there are some complications are there.

         

        You have to choose the slicer(not the value from slicer)

         

         

        Once you select the slicer, on top line in EXPLORE Options DRILLTHOUGH option will be enabled.

        then you have to check that drillthough option.

        Once you check that, go and choose the value from slicer and drillthrough another page.

         

        But the problem is once we did the drillthrough on other page, we need to go back and choose another value from slicer and again we have to do the same as above. but we can choose another value from the slicer in that page itself.

         

        I think v-caliao-msft will come up with a solution for this soon

         

        Thanks,
