Is there a Clear button to remove selections?

I have selected a few items on a page, which contains a few charts. Is there a way to quickly clear all the selections? I read someone says that I can use eraser, but I am not sure where the eraser is? Thanks

Hi @spagad6263,

 

The Eraser is at the top right of each slicer

Hello @spagad6263,

 

when you are using Power BI Desktop you need to use Ctrl+Click to trigger the button.

but when you publish the report to the web, it will work with just 1 Click without the Ctrl

Just wanted to check if your Slicer header option is enabled for your slicer or not:

Please ignore my previous question, as I've found some info below. Thanks
When viewing the report in Power BI desktop you need to hold the CTRL key when you click the button. In the Power BI Service, i.e. where your report is published you will not need the CTRL key.

@ReneMoawad Hi I followed your suggested link, and create a button, which refers to the Clear bookmark. 

If I click the CLEAR button, nothing happens, and I have to use CTRL + Click to trigger the bookmark. Am I missing something here? Thanks

Thanks for the answer, though this is not quite what I want. I might use bookmark together with a Clear button for this purpose. Anyhow thanks for your reply
