Narrow the default options for a date Slicer (Between Setting)

Hi All,

 

I have a date slicer in the 'between' mode so users can drag the little balls across to choose their own date. these are normally pretty cool. however in my current project we have a huge date range (>100 years) so when you try to narrow the range, to say, the last three years, the balls are so close together they become useless 😞

 

Is there any way I can set the default 'range' on this slicer? Lets say so that the minimum range is 3 years ago and the max range is today.

 

Perhaps I'm asking too much :'D

 

Thanks,
