Change item text in slicer

I'm trying to change the item text in my slicerr but I can't find a way to do it. I also checked online but with no result. 

Can anyone help me with this? 🙂

I can change the title but not the items itself. I've tried to edit the table/group it created but that doesn't work.

Late answer but probably good for others. I had the same issue with an int column (0,1) wanting to edit the tiles as text.

Therefore you click the "Transform Data" Button on the Home register on Power BI.

Select the column needed and then right click --> choose "replace Values..."

Then type in the Value To Find, and the Value to replace with.

12:00 a.m. = 12-6 a.m.

6:00 a.m. = 6 a.m. - 12p.m.

etc

@Anonymous By default the slicer will use the field name as Header but you can turn it off and have our own Title with below properties. 

 

Slicer Header - Off

Title - On

@PattemManohar Thank you for your reply. I'm not referring to the title/header actually. I already changed that. 

I'd like to change the items itself (12/30/1899 12:00:00 AM, as an excample. 

 

I'd like it to be:

Title

00:00 - 06:00

06:00 - 12:00

12:00 - 18:00

18:00 - 00:00

@Anonymous In that Case you need to transform the source datat for that slicer.

 

Could you please some sample data to suggest an accurate solution.

I can't get it to work..? The table I created and want to use is a group of another table, which possibly means it won't show up in the Querry Editor? I wan't to show a user what people are watching in the early morning, morning, afternoon and evening so I think this is quite a good solution, also because the slider can be put to the side using bookmarks. 

 

This is what the data looks like, but it won't show up as a column in the Querry Editor. What do I do now?
