How can I convert a button into a slicer?

Hi All,

 

I am just curious to know if a button can be converted into a slicer. If so, how can this be done?

 

Thank you,

Buttons cannot be converted to slicers, the action of a button can be assigned to a bookmark.  If you could provide more details and your requirement, it would be great.

@HamidBee the one way is (maybe not what you are looking for), change slicers orientation to horizontal under general tab in the format pane and you will get the buttons.
