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).

Hi EZgrafton,

 

I have tested it on my side, and I can switch my Slicers Between List and Dropdown with the latest version of Power BI Desktop(2.41.4581.361 64-bit (November 2016)).

 

When hovering over a Slicer on the report, the option to switch between List and Dropdown will show up automatically.:smileyhappy:

 

 

Regards
