Time series graph with several parameters and a slicer

I have a line graph over time of several different water quality parameters over time with a slicer to hopefully only look at one parameter at a time. However, when I click on a parameter on the slicer it changes the date range to one random day. (the data spreads over 20 years). The day that it picks is seemingly random and is different for each parameter on the slicer. Here's what I have now : I would like to toggle between parameters in the slicer to show one at a time in the model with the same date range. I am a new user so any advice is much appreciated with a lot of detail so I can follow along. Thank you in advance!

Hi, @Anonymous ;

According to my understanding, you mean that you want the graph to show the image of a random day when you select a value in the slicer?
If it is, you can use measure to do it, maybe RANDBETWEEN () you can try it out and make a sequence column.

But I don't understand why it only shows a random day, or the last day, the first day, or a day in between?

 

It might be better if you could share simple files after removing sensitive information.

@Anonymous , Seem like you axis is using date hierarchy and is on continuous axis type.

 

Change Date hierarchy to date or axis type to categorical and try
