ArcGIS Map - Using Measures as Slicers

Hi,

 

I'm using ArcGIS Maps and I want to use different measures as slicers that control what is displayed on the map. I don't want to have separate maps to show the different data - I want the end user to be able to control what measures they see in the map.

 

For example, the ArcGIS Map I'm using shows data at a postcode district level (UK). I have two separate measures that show year on year and week on week % differences in the data I'm measuring. I want the end user to be able to select either year on year or week on week by the use of a slicer, which would change what is seen in the postcode district level map. I don't want one map showing year on year data and another map showing week on week data.

 

Is this possible, i.e. using measures as slicers in the same way that dimensions can be used as slicers?

 

Thanks

I'm afraid slicer should only be created on a column, not a measure. As a workaround, I would suggest you to use bookmark instead. You may refer to: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-bookmarks.
