Slicer horizontal radio button
Hello community,
Actually I'm working on Migration project to Power BI, so I need to recreate the same layout and design as it was in the previous Solution (Microstrategy).
How can I create a horizontal radio Button slicer in Power BI? I can only create Vertical one. (The customer would like to see exactly the same design, so I can not replace the radio button with tile to get the horizontal layout).
Migration from one system to another is rarely an apples-to-apples process, so it's important to set that expectation with stakeholders from the start. That said, you could also try using the button slicer with a horizontal layout.

Hi PBI_Developer2,
The native slicer in Power BI does not support displaying a list-style slicer in a horizontal layout.
As a workaround, you can use a custom visual such as the Chiclet Slicer. This allows the values to be arranged horizontally, although they will behave as tiles rather than a traditional list.
For a cleaner look, you can:
- Remove the visual title
- Turn off tile borders
- Adjust spacing and formatting
This helps achieve a layout where the values appear in a single horizontal row.
It will be displayed as shown below:

Hello Rupa01,
Thank you but, No, I need to keep the Radio Button, because it is a Migration Project so the Customer needs to have the exact Layout in Power BI that he used to see in Microstrat, so I can not change with Tile or whatever. It should be exactly as the Screenshot I posted in my request.

This is available with the Button Slicer as long as you set up the Arrangement as Horizontal and enable 'Selection icon' in Layout.
