Unable to see dropdown option for slicer

Hi there,

 

I am not able to see the dropdown option in slicer. This is what I see in the slicer settings.

@Idrissshatila Thanks for your contribution on this thread.

Hi @janicetansp ,

Which type of slicer you are using? As you can see the below screenshot, there are two types of slicers: Slicer and Slicer(New)

For Slicer vyiruanmsft_5-1713949741808.png, you can navigate to Format pane and change the Style under Slicer settings tab.

For Slicer(New)vyiruanmsft_4-1713949718100.png, there is no Dropdown option...

Hello @janicetansp ,

 

if you're using the new slicer, the on in the screen shot, it currently doesn't have a drop down option.

 

you can still use the old slicer if you want to have a drop down.

Hi Idrisshatila,

 

I am using that slicer which does not have the dropdown option available. I have read in the forum that the correct icon slicer should be the one without the lightning which I do not see in the Power BI I am using.

Can you please help?

 

Thanks!

 

Janice

Hi @Idrissshatila ,

 

Please see screenshot below.

This is the slicer I have created and it is by default shown as that. In the format section, I expanded the slicer settings and I cannot see any option available to select a dropdown list.

 

Thanks.

 

Janice
