Dear Experts,
Greetings.
Is there anyway to highlight the backgroup color for a slicer dynamically ?
Example below is my slicer and if i select 2 then background should be red.
for 5 background should be green etc.
Thanks,
Viswa.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Quite surprisingly the answer is no. Even though the slicer visual has a background color that can be set in code, it doesn't know how many items are selected. Only other visuals know. So the solution is to put another visual (for example a card) behind the slicer visual and change the background on that one instead. Put the slicer visual on top and change the background transparency to 100%.
