Make a slicer a cascading dropdown?

[Be]

Does anyone know if there is a way, with code or what have you, that will make a slicer a dropdown list (like a cascading dropdown list in excel)? Or have a small search box within the slicer for lists that are long that way a user doesn't have to scroll to find what they want to click on?

And if I choose a location slicer value, the type value is updated too :

But remember that the slicer should
