Visual level filtering for slicers
- 10 years ago
There is a hack for this ...
1. turn the visual into a bar chart
2. apply the visual level filter
3. turn the visual back into a slicer
Any news on how to solve this one? Also need to use a filter version.
Me too :smileysad:

Anonymous Sreekanth Anonymous Anonymous A couple ideas here. One, go vote for this feature on one of these "Ideas"
And in the meantime there is a great blog by Reza Rad here that gives you the alternative means to get filtered slicers. It's just a much longer road than click format, set filter :)

This is "kind of" related to these Slicer Ideas too

In Oct 2016 we got the Date Slider in a Slicer containing a Date
In PowerView in Excel that Slider exists even for Numbers and numeric Measures
That Slider will in effect act as a Filter - between, less than, more than - for Numbers/Amounts (not just dates)

Thanks for the additional info Sean. My use case that I have, and was thinking of, was just removing certian values from the dropdown. We used to be able to do this by starting as a table visual, adding filters, then changing it to a slicer. It was a hack, but it worked for one-off, and not relevant values for a particular slicer.
