Grey out dates with no data in calendar selector for date slider slicer

I have a dataset that only has data on certain days of the month. I want the date selection interface to look like the one on the left (from Databricks). However in Power BI we only see the one on the right in which it is not possible to distinguish between days with data and days without data.

Hi @Anonymous 
Unfortunately, we didn't have the option to filter out dates with no data in the range of the date picker.

You can suggest it as an idea here:

Hi @Ritaf1983 Thanks for your reply. I actually posted an idea here: https://ideas.fabric.microsoft.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=5bf60d85-6b5d-ee11-a81c-6045bdbb19d6 but I had not heard of the term "date picker" before. Is "date picker" a well-accepted technical term?

Yep 🙂
