Using select all within a slicer

[andrewdoecke]

Hi All

I have the multi select option on and also the search function within my slicers.

When a search value is entered, then the select all button option disappears.

Is there a way to "select all" of the search results other than holding down control and selecting all of the individual results?

Cheers

Andrew

You can implement an other Visual Called "Text Filter" along with the existing slicer.

This is not a direct solution, but a workaround.
This way you can search for the key words and it filters you tables/visuals

Hi @Anonymous 

Why should the OP accept your answer as the solution?  I posted the correct answer, after I did so you posted an incorrect answer which I pointed out to you was incorrect, you then amended your answer.  And now you prompt the OP to mark your response as the answer.  Hmmmmm.

Hi @andrewdoecke ,

According to my test, you can select show "select all" option in Format->selection controls. then search for relevant filter results in slicer, these displayed results are selected by default. But after testing, this way does not work for visuals, which still shows the results corresponding to the select all filter.

You can also vote here: Slicer: select all from search results  and wait for users with the same needs as you to vote for you to help make it happen as soon as possible.

Hi @Anonymous 

If I try this the slicer shows the reduced options due to the search term (I search for the letter e) but the table is not filtered. I guess because the Select All option is still selected.   Did you do something else to achieve @andrewdoecke desired outcome?

Hi @andrewdoecke 

No I don't believe there is any other way than using the mouse (or keyboard) but you have to do them one by one.

If you turn off Multi-Select with CTRL in the Slicer Settings you do't need to use CTRL+Mouse, just click with the mouse.
