New Native Hierarchy Slicer Blanks

Can anyone help me with how to handle blanks with the native hierarchy slicer? With the old custom hierarchy slicer there’s simply a toggle button to ignore blanks.

Here is the solution to this that I discovered about a year ago.  Measure = INT ( NOT ISEMPTY('Table Name you're slicing')).  Put this measure as a visual level filter and set it as "is not"  0  and apply filter.

No luck. I’ve tried everything imaginable using the filter pane. Have to find a DAX way to do it I guess.

Could you please kindly provide the dummy pbix?

Can you just use the Filter pane and uncheck blanks?

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Greg, when I tried that it also removed thE parent level if it only had blanks.
