Timeline slicer default year selection

[Matthias93]

Hi,

I'm using the following timeline slicer in my report. https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/visual-awesomeness-unlocked-the-timeline-slicer/. It uses a central date table that gets dates from all other queries. It is basically just a one column list with the date in the following format: DD/MM/YYYY. Now I would like to find a way to have this slicer pre-selecting the correct Fiscal Year when opening the report. If my report for example contains data drom 2015 till 2020, I would like it pre-select the year 2017 if I'm accessing it today. Is there a way to do this?

Kind regards,

Matt

Currently, it's not supported to set default selection based on current date in TimeLine custom visual. Please submit a feature request to: pbicvsupport@microsoft.com
