Create custom date slider.

Does anyone have suggestions on how to create a custom date slider for Power BI? The custom date slider in the visuals gallery does not allow date levels to be turned off (like weeks, months, days) so I'm looking to build one. Thanks.

@shj997,

It would be a great challenge for anyone who is not experienced enough. You may learn how to create a custom visual for Power BI using the developer tools from here.

Thanks Sam, I have already built the custom bar chart using Microsoft's tutorial. I am now trying to reverse engineer the custom date slider provided.

@shj997,

You may share what you've already done and what problem you face. Remember that there are currently a few limitations to using the PowerBI command line tools. Check API Roadmap and API Change Log for more information and leave a comment at GitHub if necessary.
