Hello All!
I had to covert a slicer to a drop-down list as I've added more items & want to save real estate. There appears to be an issue in both the desktop & the service when selecting multiple items. In my case, the slicer values are years (e.g., 2016, 2017, etc.). When I click on the drop-down arrow to select a value, all years display fine; however, when I move my cursor out down to select an item from the list, the list disappears and I'm left with the slicer as it appeared prior to clicking the drop-down arrow.
It appears this was an ongoing thing a while back. Here is a link to the issue in an old post:
PBI Desktop Version: 2.69.5467.1751 64-bit (May 2019)
The problem manifests with all selection control settings I have tried. I haven't tried single select because my users want to select multiple values.
Not sure if anybody else is experiencing this.
HI @Anonymous ,
I test with same version but I can't reproduce this issue, can you please share more details information to help us clarify this issue?(e.g operation steps, snapshot...)
Regards,
Xiaoxin Sheng
