Unable to modify common properties of selected visual controls of same type

Not sure if this has been already discussed/addressed, but I found a very annoying bug with the new December release!
It used to be that when you selected multiple visualization controls of the same type, you were able to update their common properties at once. This is no longer possible, you have to select each control and edit its properties separately. Example:
1. Drop 3 slicers on a page and assign them to a field
2. Select them all
3. In the visualizations pane, go to General
4. Select Properties
5. Expand Size
6. Set Height = 75, Width = 150
In the past, this process would update the height and width of all 3 slicers at once. This, no longer works and it is very annoying when working on pages with many visuals of the same type (charts, slicers, tables, etc.) that you might want to adjust common properties

I don't know if this is a side effect of the On-Object Interaction developement, (I have it turned-off), but please fix as this is a big productivity setback. I am reverting to the October release as this (to me) had been the least buggy version of PBI desktop lately

Is enyone else experiencing same issue?

@tvav , I have faced a similar issue. Log an issue or idea, seems like the feature is not supported with the new enhancement
