Splicer Orientation drop-down missing
Hi jwongPowerBI ,
Today I just updated my Power BI Desktop to the same version with yours(Version: 2.78.5740.861 64-bit (February 2020)). I got the same issue only when drag YEAR in date hierarchy on Slicer, and it works well when drag the field with data type text or number directly. Whether Year list in your screenshot is also from Year part of date hierarchies?
The problem appears to have occurred after the version upgraded… A temporary solution is to drag any field with text or number type onto the slicer, set its display type to "List" and Orientation as “Horizontal”, then replace this field with Year field in the date hierarchy.
Best Regards
Rena
