Hierarchy slicer: Not to show field name in made selection

Hello,

I have in my dashboard a slicer awith two levels  country and city.

When I select Paris inside France, in Desktop the slicer gets  "Multiple Selection" text but when I publish the dashboard the slicer gets "France (country) + Paris (city)".

I would like to see it like this "France + Paris", without name fields in parenthesis. 

Is it possible?

 

Thanks

Hi @Tim-1967 ,

 

we running into the same problem as you Tim. Do you find a workaround for your problem?

@amitchandak : Do you have any idea how we change change the displayed values in the slicer? 

I know we can display them in the titel or header but maybe there is an idea to change the selected slicer values to only values and not attribute name in brackets. 

 

Best

Hello @Tim-1967 ,

We're sorry that you can only control the title of another Visual with a slicer, you can't use Slicer to control your own title.

Slicer 1 only controls the title of the table visual.

You can create a measure like this and put it in the title text.

Measure = 
var _x = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[name1])
var _y = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[name2])
return
 _x & "+" &_y

If you want to control the title of slicer 1, you must create a new table that contains the hierarchy slicer, and then use it to create a new slicer.

Next, create a new measure to control slicer 1.

Measure 2 = 
var _x = SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[name1])
var _y = SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[name2])
return
 _x & "+" &_y

If you don't meet your requirements, could you show the exact expected result based on the table you shared?

Hi @amitchandak,

Point 1 is how I see slicer in desktop

Point 2 is how I see the slicer in the published report (online)

Point 3 is how I'd like to see the slicer in the published report

 

Hope it helps

 

Thanks
