Search in filter dropdown BUG

There is a bug when using the filter as a dropdown with seach enabled.

 

The search field is visible but cant be used to enter text for searching.

Hi @jeppesal,

Do you mean the search box in slicer? If that is the case, I make a test in the latest version of Power BI Desktop, everything works well, I can enter text in search box in dropdown mode, please check the following screenshots.

Could you please post a screenshot about your scenario?

Hi Lydia,

 

Hmm I must agree that it works in a new project I created. It seems like I have to delete and recreate the slicers in my old reports (not a problem).

 

Thank you.
