Animated Visuals Query in Power BI

Hi, 
I have downloaded the Play Axis app to allow me to create dynamic animated visuals in Power BI. 
I have created a bar chart and also added the dynamic slicer with the correct field to use. 
I know you can hide the dyamnic slicer by selecting, view menu, and in selection pane you can find the item and select hide. 
However, I want to ensure that on my dashboard that this animated slicer is still active but just doesn't show it to the end users. 
Please can someone advise if this is possible use the app above and outline the best way to achieve this?
So I want the end user to see the visuals animated when the open up the dashboard but they will not see the actual dynamic slicer. 
Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated. 
Thanks

hi @Jacb 

The Play axis visual includes an auto-start feature. During testing, I have observed that if this option is enabled, the visual will begin auto-playing when the page containing it is opened such as when you switch to a different page then go back to the previous one.
