I am currently experiencing a very weird formatting change with the slicer visual. I have a range of percentages that I want to be able to change when using the manual input boxes. However, anytime I try to go and click into the box to enter a different minimum or maximum value, the format of the value changes from percentage to decimal. In order for me to get a minimum of -10% I would need to enter -0.1. If I enter "500" or "500%" as a maximum then it becomes 50000%. I included that as a screenshot below. I have checked all my data formats and throughout my whole report I have set this field as a percentage, so I am really confused why this is still occurring within my visual. It does not occur when the slider part of the visual is used, so the slicer is working perfectly otherwise.
Would anyone know why this is happening? Is there a way to ensure that I can just input the percentage value rather than the decimal representation of the percentage? As a UI design this is something I would really love to combat, but I am new to Power BI so I am not sure how to go around this situation. Or if anyone has a suggestion on another visual that would be better suited for this slider option?

Hi @panna27
It's been like that since its introduction as far as I can remember. It switches to percentages when you're not entering data. Otherwise, you need to input a decimal number.
