Slicer pane - Scrollable

Hi I'm creating a custom slicer pane with bookmarks. Since I have a lot of slicers, is there any way that I can make it scrollable? (The issue with using filter pane is that I'm not able to format how I want the user to filter for the data. For example, if I put a date, it doesn't make it a slider and instead people have to select on or after date and then create a new one which is not good for the user

  • Hi svp1000 ,

    Until now, there's no way to make bookmark scrollable, but you can redesign your filter pane to something like this:

     

    This was done using Bookmarks, see that you have entire page to do that, i recomend your to search for videos in youtube about filter pane using bookmarks .

     

    if this was helpful, please consider to mark as solution and give a Kudo.

     

    thank you

  • Hi sv123 - Yes, you can make a custom slicer pane scrollable in Power BI by using a few creative workarounds, as Power BI doesn't natively support scrollable custom slicer panes.

    If you have too many slicers, another approach is to group them by category or type and create multiple slicer panes.set up bookmarks to toggle between these groups of slicers, which reduces the need for scrolling by showing only a subset of slicers at a time.

    or

     

    The Chiclet Slicer custom visual is another option that allows more customization of slicer layouts and may fit more slicers in a smaller area.While it doesn't add scrollability directly, its flexibility might allow you to arrange slicers in a more compact way, reducing the need for scrolling.

     

    Hope these approaches helps to align the slicers

      Hi, thanks for letting me know. With respect to chiclet slicer, would you have any videos/articles or examples where you can show how it can be used?

  • Hi sv123 ,
    To make a slicer to have slider you need to go on format pane with your slicer selected, and in Slicer Settings, change the options to Between as shown bellow:

    Currently, Power BI does not natively support the creation of scrollable bookmarks.

    If this post was helpful, please consider giving it a Kudo and marking it as the solution.

    Thank you!

      Hi Bibiano, I wanted help with making the custom filter pane scrollable. I already had the slider set up btw. Is this something you have done in the past? Basically, I have around 20 filters that I'm not able to fit in the page (so I created a custom slicer pane using bookmarks but even here, I have to have it through an entire page for me to accomodate the slicers, I was wondering if there is a way that I can make it scrollable
