Hi all,
I would like to update a date slicer depending on a category.
In the attached example, I have a table with ids, categories and start dates.
I also have a date slicer which by default hase a range equal to my calendar table.
I managed to create a measure (min_start_date_per_cat) which gives me the minimal date for each category.
I also managed to create a calendar tables which updates depending on the category selected.
However, i would like my date slicer to also update.
In the attached example, when I select the category B, the slicer goes from 01/01/2021 but I would like it to start from 01/06/2021
Any idea on how to achieve this?

@Anonymous if you are using date slicer as between (shown in the image above), there is no solution for it, I have already hit the wall on this until someone else has a solution but yes if it is a list or drop-down there there is a solution.
