Hierarchy style Slicers

Hi All, I am trying to create a filter/slicer panel for a dashboard. 

 

What I wanted to achieve looks like this: Thanks in advance for your help!

You can drop multiple fields into the slicer and it will organize them in hierarchies. Put the biggest "bucket" at the top. It doesn't look precisely like your screenshot, but it is very close. 

Thank you for the advice! I tried that but we don't really have a biggest "bucket" here. All filters(columns) are on the same level...

Oh, so you don't actually have a hierarchy, you're just trying to display them with a collapsable widget? You could potentially add a column to each of your dimension tables (assuming you're using them) with the value (like "Subject" on subjects), which would give you a single-level hierarchy to group under...

 

Guy in a Cube has a tutorial on making fancy slicers, too, if you see anything you like in here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xl-uhgzgEA
