Freeze Filter Pane

Hi guys.

 

I'm currently working on a page that has a lot of filters and is also a very long page (we need to scroll a lot)

 

Is there any way to freeze my "filter pane", so that it won't scroll along with the other visuals? This way, the users would be able to easily check the active filters even if they're at the bottom of the page

 

I see someone else asked this 3 years ago and it was not possible at the moment, but I hope it now is or maybe that there's some workaround.

 

Using the default filters on power bi do not work, since the users won't have edition access

    Hi Anonymous ,

    Unfortunately, It is unsupported to fix the slicers on the same position on the screen when users scroll up and down in Power BI currently.. power BI is now unable to achieve what you need . You can vote here  Slicer to move around with a scrolling page 

     

    You can wait for users with the same needs as you to vote  to help make it happen as soon as possible.

    Hi Anonymous ,

    Please have a try.

    A) Use the filter pane instead of slicers. Not as customizable, but still functional and always visible
    B) Keep the report page to screen size so they don't have to scroll, then if you need more space add another page. Use the sync slicers to keep filters same on all pages, so if you change it on one page it changes on all pages. Slicers in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

     

    I have also found a similar post, please refer to it to see if it helps you.

    • use the filter pane as your slicer appling the filter to the page 
    • using bookmarks to show different visuals instead of going up and down the page

      Hi!

       

      As stated, using the default filters (filter pane) do no work, since the users won't have edition access or a power bi account. Also it is not possible to fit all the info in a single "scroll", we already have multiple pages that need scrolling
