Create Custom Time Slicer

Anonymous — Thu, 02 Sep 2021 13:49:07 GMT

I am trying to create a custom time slicer like this:

When the e.g. WEEK is selected, then the respective 7days interval should appear & the user could navigate to next/previous periods using the right/left arrows.

An alternative & complicated solution that is close to the above is using a lot of buttons & bookmarks, like the below:

I have searched also in App Source and only the "Timeline" I found which is not so relevant.

Is there anybody who has implemented any kind of filter like the 1st one? I suppose that this could be using JavaScript? And then importing it in PBI? I haven't done something like this before.

Please, any help on this could be more than welcomed!

Thanks!

Hi @Anonymous ,

As far as I know, creating new columns and using buttons and bookmarks are also good choices without proper visual.

Yes, @Liang you are right. The custom solution I have made in 2nd screenshot above is based on buttons & bookmarks.

Thanks!
