Show/Hide Table visual with slicer

Hello,

I have some sample data structure below (My real data is very large with lots of columns and rows).

What I would like to do is use a slicer or field parameter to hide/show each table visual depending on which one is selected on a slicer. I plan to have them fully overlapping so I would need the headers to completely disappear too. I am aware I can do this with bookmarks however I really wanted to see if there was any other way of achieving the same effect?

I have tried using field parameters to just hide certain columns depending on the selection but I think because the two tables don't have a direct relationship I couldn't get anything to work.

 

Any help would be really appreciated!

Many thanks,

You can't fully hide the table (Power Bi sadly doesn't offer any visible true/false switches) but you could fully replace the content of your tables via the Field-parameters:

In this case I added (nearly) all columns of "FactTable" and "FactSales" into a field-parameter and added an additional column to categorize them as "Table A" or "Table B" for the slicer.

This works for unrelated tables too

Amazing! I've spent all day on this and turns out all I was missing was that column to categorise them.
Thank you so much.

@ls784 You're welcome! Field parameters became my favorite toy in Power Bi, once I learned how to add columns to them 😅

Just to clarify: I mean it doesn't offer any dynamic visible true/false switches in the visual settings to show/hide whole visuals via measures.
