Filtering - displaying filters in a more user friendly manner / different position on page

Hello,

I've seen some dashboards that show filters on the left hand side rather than in the filter pane on the right?

 

How do I do this?  Is it possible to display only specific filters like this?

 

Thanks

Ok so I now realise that the answer is to use slicers!  And the Sync slicers feature is very useful for applying them across pages.

Hi @chickenlicken ,

Can you please some screen shot of it?

 

Don't forget to give thumbs up and accept this as a solution if it helped you!!!

Please take a quick glance at newly created dashboards : Restaurant Management Dashboard , HR Analytics Report , Hotel Management Report, Sales Analysis Report , Fortune 500 Companies Analysis , Revenue Tracking Dashboard

Ironically if I had read the link I posted a bit more carefully I could have figured this out quite quickly.
