Hide Slicer After Single Selection

[Sharonz_93]

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to replicate a UX pattern where a radio-button single-select slicer appears when the user clicks a button, and then automatically closes (disappears) immediately after the user makes a selection.

I’ve tried the following:

1. Bookmarks for showing/hiding the slicer panel.

2. A “Done” button inside the slicer to manually close it.

However, I still haven't found a way to make the slicer auto-close immediately after a selection is made, without requiring a second user click on a separate button or area.

Is there a built-in way (or best workaround) using:

• Bookmarks

• Field parameters

• Or DAX triggers
  to detect a slicer selection and fire the hide bookmark automatically?

I’d love to see anyone’s example or demo .pbix showing this behavior in action.

---

Details:

• Slicer Type: List slicer with Single Select enabled.

• Desired UX: Automatically hide after selecting an option.

• Tools Tried: Bookmarks, “Done” buttons.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Sharonz_93,

Thank you  for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.
Thank you @danextian @Akash_Varuna for your response regarding issue.

Right now, Power BI doesn't support auto-hiding a slicer when you select an option. There's no direct way to trigger a bookmark just by slicer selection.

Your idea is good, and you’re already using the best workaround showing the slicer with a button and closing it using a “Done” button. That’s the most used method currently.

Best Regards,
Harshitha.

Hi @Sharonz_93 

Power BI doesn't auto-hiding slicers after a selection. Your best route and the closest to what you're trying achieve are what you've already tried: 

1. Bookmarks for showing/hiding the slicer panel.

2. A “Done” button inside the slicer to manually close it.

Hi @Sharonz_93 Power BI doesn’t support auto-hiding a slicer after selection. A workaround is using bookmarks to toggle slicer visibility and a DAX measure (e.g., SelectedValueCheck) to detect when a selection is made. Sync the slicer's visibility with this measure via conditional formatting.
