Button slicer not syncing across pages
Hi MrGug ,
- Slicers can sync across pages only if they are based on the same field and are of the same type.If you manually change the visual type (such as switching from List to Dropdown).
- Power BI treats them as different for syncing purposes if the change is done manually rather than through the Sync Slicers pane.
- sync limitation : The sync slicers feature only supports one field at a time. If your slicer has more than one field (Category or Measure), the sync slicers feature is disabled.

It works when I create a slicer from scratch but when I just change the visual type it stops syncing. I had read that the 2 types of slicers should be able to sync between pages but it does not seem to be the case. Thanks for your response!

Thanks. The only thing I would add is that the sync check box remains checked in the slicer sync panel even if the sync is not active anymore after the slicer type has been changed. It should be disabled automatically to avoid confusion.
