clear all slicer selection

Hi, Is there a way to clear all current selection (kind of go back to the default slicer setting when the report was loaded) with just one action ?

Has this been changed? I used to see the little eraser icon on all slicer selections but now it seems to be gone. They fixed the dissapearing search box in the latest update, has a new problem with the clear button appeared in its place? And now in the desktop I can't figure out how to switch a slicer from a dropdown to a list... It was obvious just a week ago. Am I missing something?

 

best,

Jesse

    Hi all,

    It seems like if I remove the header option, the dropdown vs. list and erase all current selection options dissapear. Super bummer, I have ~ 30 slicers that use title instead of Header to describe whats in them. 

     

    best,

    Hi @jessewysong,
    If you disable the Header field from the Format Painter section under the Visualizations pane then the "Clear Selections" and the small icon to convert slicer visual into a drop-down list or simple list & vice-versa disappears. So enable it and you'll find both the options.  
     
    I've highlighted the part where the options appear and the Header section which you need to enable.

    Enable Header switch for Slicer Visual
