How do I re-create it?

Thank you!

@roncruiser That is a Numeric range parameter. You can create one from the Home tab in Power BI and going to Modeling, then New parameter and then Numeric range.

Hi @roncruiser 

That question mark is an extended property auto-added to a column when creating a numeric or field parameter using the GUI. As a numeric parameter, the column can be added to a slicer as single select. The same property can be applied to  any numeric column using Tabular Editor which is useful if the column is, say, in a fact table and not a what-if parameter table. Otherwise, you can just create a new numeric parameter from the modeling tab

To recreate it: go to Modeling → New Table → paste the DAX above. Done

It does not work with that method.  Shown after the calculated table is created below:

This creates a New Parameter with a slicer.  Which is what I need.

GENERATESERIES(1, 30, 1) is defined below:

After creating the New Parameter with slicer:

Thanks.
