Slicer options question

Hi, I have three questions about slicers/drill through after choosing something in the slicer

Is there a way to set up a slicer so that when a user clicks on the specific item in the slicer, it automatically sends the user to a specific page where a drill through is set up?

Can a button be created where instead of the user having to right click on the item chosen, they can click on a button instead? I would imagine in doing that, you can then direct the user to a specific page if multiple drill through pages were created.

Is there a way to hide the check box in a slicer that has multiple fields, where i user can just click on the selection without a check box appearing at every level? Something like the illustration on the right.

HI @Anonymous,

AFAIK, current you can't do drill through on slicer. If you want to pass the filter effects across the report page, you can try to use the slicer with sync mode.

Hi and thanks for your feedback. I actually figured out a way to do it, but involves doing a couple of steps and I'm not sure if it works for every situation but it worked for me.  But yes, the option isn't available directly on the slicer.
