Lock slicer button size

Hi

 

Is it possible to lock the size of slicer buttons for visual purposes?

 

I have right now 3 slicers visually lined up as follwing:

 

Slicer 1: X X X

Slicer 2: X X

Slicer 3: X

 

Slicer 1 is about departments.

I would like to keep the size of Slicer 1 buttons intact, so if more departments is added, you will have to press right arrow on Slicer 1 to get more options. Right now if I add more departments in Slicer 1, the buttons shrinks and shows a total of 4. I havent adjusted the width of the bar and doing so won't help me keep the visual of 1,2,3 buttons.

 

Is there a way to keep the visuals and lock the button sizes?

Hi

Here by attached screenshots.

 

Pic 1 shows allignment of the buttons for the visuals. When I add more data on 1st row (orange), the slicer buttons resize and becomes smaller and destroys the visuals. I want the buttons to be same size as Pic 1, with a possibility of scrolling right in order to get more data.

Hi @JISAP ,

 

Due to the size of visual is fixed, the slicer buttons only can change their own size. It is not supported to lock them and resize the visuals automatically based on the buttons.

 

You could submit an idea here. Power BI Ideas

@JISAP , if you are using the responsive method, then they will be of the same size
