attribute slicer issue

hi. 

im using the attribue slicer for one dimensions, and another 4 regular slicers.

i've noticed that the attribute slicer doesnt slice according to the other slicers,

for example, i have category->products

category - regular slicer

products - attribue slicer

when selecting category, the products slicer stays the same

is someone knows the problem?

 

thanks!

maybe it's related to the live/import?

 

i have an import report and the slicer works good there...

strange:(

@MP_123 I have a report with both attribute and normal slicer and both are working fine with filtering from one another.

 

Have you checked you have active relations between two tables ? I didn't noticed issue with DirectQuery either.

 

Also select any of the two visual, go to edit interactions and check you have filter selected.

hi, thanks!

 

actually my data comes from a ssas cube so  the relations defined already.

i tried to create report with "import data" and there's no problem

now on live connection i've noticed to this problem.

and the problem is not withh the attribute slicer, but the whole slicers, don't interact with each other, edit intercations defined also.

 

i'm lost.. you have an idea? maybe some setting on the cube itself

 

thanks!!!

@MP_123 When you connect live, in powerbi desktop are able to see the relations in Relationships area. Are you sure data is correct ?

yes, data is correct

connecting live dont enable to see relations.

 

i have month slicer and date slicer, both under the same dimension and they do affect each other.

other slicer don't

hi,

the problem is dimensions doesnt affect other dimensions, only measures

again, the problem happens in live only.

 

somone??

@MP_123

I recommend you update the latest versoin of Power BI Desktop, re-import the Attribute Slicer .pbviz try again.
