    Hi Abhijit07 ,

    Slicer: Only can add text/number

    Chiclet Slicer: Can display image and/or text buttons that act as an in-canvas filter on other visualsThe Chiclet Slicer was inspired by the great slicer control found in Excel since 2010, but with much greater customization options. Chiclet are a slicers made of buttons, that can also be arranged horizontally for a very efficient real estate use, or arranged as a matrix for a super compact form. Chiclet slicer also supports cross highlighting. That's not all - they can even contain images! This is an open source visual.
