Select Single Value option for slicers similar to Parmeters

[Seward12533]

Hi, I use disconnected slicers to get functionality similar the what-if parameter for text and non-numberic choices.  I needed to use this before last August release.  Is there a way to get "Single Value" layout for slicers not created by using the button?  I often create my models in PowerPivot in excel and then migrate to PowerBI.  May do it less now you can filter the from the table view in PowerBI but would be nice if there was a way to make an existing measure a paramter without having to redefine the table.

The tables and measures are the same except for the options available from slicer settings

Manually created

    YEN Rate = GENERATESERIES(100,130,1)

    Select Yen Rate = SELECTEDVALUE('YEN Rate'[Rate],115)

Created using WHATIF Parameter

    Xrate = GENERATESERIES(100, 130, 1)

    Xrate Value = SELECTEDVALUE(Xrate[Xrate Parameter], 115)

Hi @Seward12533

"Is there a way to get "Single Value" layout for slicers not created by using the button"

The first picture seems to be a What If parameter.

For a slicer, you can select "Format" pane->"Selecrion controls"->"Single select"

Thanks Maggie what I'm really looking for is a true single value selections. With "Single Select" in the format Pane the users can still select multiple values with CTRL-Click. With the Single Value option of a paremeter filter it truely limits to a single value.  Having this would avoid error checking for situations where you need to foce a single value and provide very different visual for the users.
