Hierarchical slicer: only lowest level should be selectable

Hi all. 

I am working with maps; plotting location of customers on the map. Looks great but when one has many items to plot, rendering the map becomes slow. 

As we have Regios as the top level and  stores on the next level, i thought of a hierarchical slicer. Navigation in this hierarchy goes well and selecting a single store works fine, taken the rendering time into account.

But.. allways a but:  The slicer also allows the user to select a region and that makes rendering very slow. How can i prevent the user to select a region.

regards, Marco

Hi Amit. You suggest to use two 'single level' slicers instead of one hierarchical slicer?

Possible, but then i loose the nice navigation.

@MarcoDekker , I doubt that . You can choose for single select and multiple slicer
