Select all works the same as select nothing

Hello, I have a slicer, which should help me to filter the table. There are some values in slicer which I want to display in table. I want to display only them. When I click on "Select all" nothing happens, my table is still not filtered. When I choose nothing my table is not filtered (which is expected). It means that "Select all" has the same behavior as select nothing. What is work around, please?

Select All  and Select nothiing will both select everything.

 

If you want to select 3 out of 5 items iitems, then just selcet those 5 items.

 

Please click tjhumbs up and accept solution.

 

Incidentally, if you dont know how to use slicers yet, then you are clearly a novice.

I recommed that you do some free training here before asking any more questions,

You will learn quicker with a structured learning pasth, than asking random questions

@alks_skla_f  'select all' does have the same functionality as choosing nothing by design, it's more of a user-friendly option for when the report is published.
to only select some items, you need to ensure that the selection settings have 'mutli-select with CTRL' on, this is the default setting, then hold ctrl while you select items in the slicer
