Hide buttons

Hi experts,

 

i was wondering if it's possible to hide a button based on a date slicer:

  • If i select 2021 or earlier the button should be visible
  • If i select 2022 or later the button should be hidden

 

Hoping anyone knows if this is possible or not

 

Tnx!

    Hello Anonymous 

     

    You should use bookmarks.

    A bookmark is actually a snaphot of what you see on th dashboard.

     

    If one value is selected then show the button otherwise hide it

      The problem here is that all the buttons have bookmarks on them and the dateslicer is synced across all the pages(6)/bookmarks(42). 

      So i'm already using bookmarks, but now the customer wants to hide a button based on the change in date

    Extending themistoklis  suggesstion, there is a very good video by guy in a cube which can help you implement it.

    It turned out to be really helpful for me.

      I suggested that to the customer, but they said:

      "well, now there is an empty space between the buttons (around 11 buttons vertically). That's not acceptible."

       

      By now it looks like they are expect an application instead of a dashboard ğŸ˜‚

        You can overlap the buttons and show as per the page selected.

    Hi, Anonymous ;

    Or use conditional formatting to make the background black or some other color if you select 2021 or earlier, and white otherwise, so that the button is visually invisible.
