Slicer drop down

Hi,   I just downloaded the Nov update; however, I cannot convert my slicers into a drop down list. The option is not available.   Please help!

    Hi

     

    I had the same issue, you need to put the header on in the slicer formatting and the option is then available.

    That's correct.  Go into settings for the visual and make sure the "Header" is On (not to be confused with the Title setting).

I've just came across this issue myself today. I'm almost sure this feature was working before?

 

The dropdown selection appears in edit mode but when in read mode on the service the dropdown to change slicer type is not there? I have slicer header turned on.

 

Has anyone else came across this?

I just ran into the same issue - working on desktop and can't change my slicer to a dropdown.

    I just downloaded the Oct version of PBI desktop and now I'm able to change the slicer 🙂

      Anonymous  am also using the October version: 2.74.5619.862 64-bit (October 2019).

       

      I created this report months ago. I created a new file as a test this morning and still can't switch between the date slicer types.
