Microsoft Timeline Slicer not refreshing

[malpani]

I have a report which has three slicers on the page - Product, Release and third slicer is Timeline slicer.
And I created a custom visual in Deneb Vegalite.

I am facing following two issues with Timeline Slicer @Microsoft
 

Problem 1: When I change the Product and Release slicers, timeline slicers period changes automatically with respect to that product/release which is not desirable. If I have earlier selected it for Q1 and Q2, it should stick to those selection instead of showing all ranges Q1, Q2, Q3 and so on if product /releases have dates.

Problem 2: After I change selection in Product and Release slicer, it automatically changes values in Timeline slicer but for some reason it doesn't refresh the Deneb visual. But as soon as I click on timeline slicer, visual gets refreshed. I suspect timeline slicer is not interacting well.

Hello @malpani ,

it's because you're using the date field from the table that has the data not a dim date.

create a dim date and link it to the data table.
