Responsive setting in slicer greyed out

Hi All,

 

Would like to check on latest february 2022 release of power bi, when I created a what if parameter called topN, and added it as a slicer in my report.

 

However, I would like to turn off the responsive option in the settings to change the slicer look from the "rounded look" to the "straight line look" as per previous version

However when i check for the responsive setting to achieve this, in the new format pane, the responsive option is greyed out

Has anyone faced this issue for the new format pane?

 

Target -> (old before updated power bi) - "Straight line slicer"

Hi @Anonymous ,

This issue will be fixed in April release of Desktop. Please be patient for the fix.Currently, please disable New Format Pane as a workaround.

Here is what I discovered by chance! The slicer scroller bar is now in the Format Options drop-down!

Hi, I'm facing the same issue of the responsive option being greyed out. I also don't appear to have the option to select nor de-select 'new format pane' in options>preview features. Does anyone know a way around this?
Many thanks
