Partitioning of deltatables and directlake mode

Hi - am experimenting with directlake mode connection from a deltatable to PowerBI. 

 

Can the direct lake mode take advantage of partitioning of the deltatable? One use case would be that a report has a single-select slicer, loading only one partition at the time into memory. 

 

Cannot read this out from the available documentation.
