Inquiry about Slicer Function In PBI Desktop

Hi,

 

I am new user to Power BI and have some questions wish to get help from you guys.

 

1. Can I disable certain graph to have slicer effect? I am using September/October version?

 

2, Is it possible to have 2 slicers in a single Power bI sheet? If the previous question has an No answer, then I should move the second slicer to a new Power BI sheet should be the best option, am I right?

 

3. Can I fit the colour in the graph? For instance, red colour will display for the bar that need special attention while I select different year in the slicer?

 

4. Can I delete column (year) in the slicer that contain no data in the for the whole year? If not, any suggestion to remove the data selection when put month in the slicer? The filter function for the slicer is not available.

 

 

Thank you.

 

Regards,

Potiu

Yes, but you need to deny the filtering from Slicer. Just go to "Format"->"Edit Interaction"。

Yes, you can keep multiple slicers within single report page.

Yes, you can assign a color for specific Legend item.

No, it's not possible. Slicer will populate all values in your data field. It can't determine if an item has corresponding fact data or not.
