Text visual across all pages
Hey community 🙂
I have a question that I could not find the answer to other threads.
I have some reports. There are some instances that our data are not coming as intended, and when that is the case I have to put an alert message on those reports.
Now, each report might have 10 pages, so it is cumbersome to go into every page and add the text box.
What I do right now is go through the selection and change to what is shown.
I am wondering whether there is a way to change this text visual from just one page and then make it take effect to all other pages.
Best,
Giorgio
Hi, Gsar
Interesting question,
I believe you can create a Table with desired texts, create a card from that text and assign it a Slicer that will filter only this card, choose the text you want, copy the card and slicer to all pages, keep Sync of the slicers ON, hide slicers in all pages except the first one and then just change the Text-Slicer in first Page and every other page will be changed.

Is there anyway to do the above without cretaing a table in ssas?
Check out "Text search slicer" from DataBrothers s.r.o. - it allows to sync search expression across pages as it works like a slicer and it has a superset of features of Microsoft Text Filter visual:
Customizable slicer that enables searching/filtering within one or more text categories.
Text search slicer was inspired by the need for broader customization options in Power BI report development. Users can now format font, padding, border, color, and text within the Format Pane. In addition, the slicer supports filtering on multiple category text fields via hitting ENTER or using the in-built search button. Slicer gets reset if the focus is lost and/or no filter was applied. When filtering multiple categories, additional buttons are shown. The filter is then applied based on highlighted buttons. This visual is certified by Power BI.
