Custom Visual Timeline Slicer Does not appear to work when using SSAS Multi Dimensional as source
Again and Again am saying this try to avoid custom visual.
Last week i spoked with Power BI Development engineer regards dashboard performance issue , they also recomemnded the same . pls avoid it.
Hi Baskar
I understand why some recommend not using custom visuals, but this is not really a viable option if Power BI is going to succeed.
Although it is constantly being updated and improved, Power BI is still missing a log of required functionality; this is mitigated by having custom visuals available. If we remove custom visuals then the product as a whole is significantly compromised and far less suitable for a lot of projects.
So the only viable answer is not to put our heads in the sand and not use them, but for the awesome custom visual devs (like Jan Pieter) to keep enhancing them further, and critically for Microsoft to find a way of not breaking visuals when Power BI is updated.
