Fancy Slicer Question

hey guys - thank you for reading this - im a total noob and i will apologize for that now. 

 

I've been tasked with creating a dashboard for some sales metrics we have to report on and while this document is contantly in from of our ELT team, its about to be seen by the board members. 

It looks a bit sloppy with some 11 slicers on one side - in my design mock up - i have a FILTER button - that I had hoped I could use some fancy tricks to "boost the visual". I'm hoping onClick to activate and mouse off or something like that. 

Because I'm a noob, if you have any direction for me, i'd be grateful if you kept it simple. I've included a graphic to show you what i'd like to achieve. My fingers are crossed that someone out there has some answers for me.

Hi @Anonymous 

 

Use bookmarks to show or hide visuals on click. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-bookmarks/?wt.mc_id=MVP_447534 

 

Group those slicers together so there's only one object to apply a bookmark to and make sure to apply it to specific visuals only. Just a heads-up—if you plan to do this on multiple pages, you'll need to create separate bookmarks for each page. Duplicating a page does not automatically generate a bookmark for it.
