Super UserCaroline_92 Understanable.
If your default choice is to click overwhelming amount of options in slicer, perhaps, some categories would be nice.
You can create something similar, like you would categorize the stuff by what you would normally type and use that for slicer. And then have another with specific options to further adjust it.
Something like
value |category
ABC | A
AGD | A
BC | B
etc
Thanks for your reply, I will look into the possibilities of maybe creating some categories based on what searches are made.
