Slicer display option for user connivence in screen?

[ssspk]

Hello Team,

I know that there is no option to disply the slicer like in the image-2. Just want to know any option is available for displayt like in right side of the date selection. It will reduce the space in the page. Also UI perspective  its is important for all the users.

I am using slicer between here for date.

Hi @ssspk 

Just as Uzi2019 posted that you can create 2 Slicers and hide slider in 1st date and hide the date rangge in 2nd Slicer.

One thing I would like to add is the 2 Slicers shouldn't enable edit interaction of both the slicer to filter, you can find the Sync slicers in the view pane.

Open the Advanced options and give the 2 Slicers the same name:

Then select the 2 slicers and Group them in the format pane:

The result is as follow:

Here for your reference:

Hi @ssspk, No direct option is available to achieve this, but you can try to create 2 slicers,
For the first one, turn off the slider, for the second one reduce the font size to minimum, make the font color similar to background, you might still see the date boxes, to deal with it, hide them with a shape visual.

Once done, group all the visuals

Hi @ssspk 

Unfortunetly No, There is no such custom visual available. If you really want slider to be n right side of the date range then you to so some kind of arrangement it will increase some extra steps for you. 

As you can see i have done some formatting to make the same background. taken the 2 date slicer. hide slider in 1st date and try to match the date value with backgroud color. juts to give realistic look. and put text box on 2nd date range value so that users will not able to select from other slicer.

Note : make sure you enable edit interaction of both the slicer to filter.

Or you can simply suggest you idea under idea section of power bi. if they find it helpful they might implemnet in the future.

Hello @ssspk ,

Well, you can use tricks such as create 2 slicers date between and make edit interaction is effected. And give blank some of the areas such as first slicer should be seen date values and second slicer should be seen only date lines etc.
