Hie, go to https://app.powerbi.com/visuals/ and import ChicletSlicer. This visual makes user to select atleast one value. Go to Format and select Forced Selection option.

 

 

Hope this helps. :smileyvery-happy:

      I need to force a single selection for Year in my report and was so excited about the Chiclet slicer being able to do this.  But, I have found a couple of issues. 

       

      • If you set Multiple selection Off you can still selected multiple values in the slicer using Ctrl key
      • Also, you cannot Sync the slicer across the pages

      Please let me know if there is a way around these issues using the Chiclet slicer or if I am misunderstanding how it is supposed to work. 

       

      Thanks!
