Workaround Field Parametre - slice bar chart based on measure?

Hi,

 

I would like to create a slicer where I can choose between Cars or Passengers. Is it not possible to use the new Field Parametres feature, because I use live connection.

 

Here is the bar chart I would like the user to be able to filter and see only #Cars OR  #Passengers Cars.

Is that possible?

@bmpi , All measure slicer option requires you to create an independent table. That is possible in the data model only , I would suggested if that be created at source
