Hi ThomasDay,

If you are work on the 'read view' mode of power bi reports, it is possible to use 'rest to default' option to restore all the changes to raw report contents. (it does not clear up all filter effects and it just the restore to raw graph)

    Hi ThomasDay,

    In fact, current power bi does not support to use of DAX formula to change slicer selections.

    It is possible to use the measure as a filter and use it on visual level, but it not modify the current selections. (it can filter the visual item list based on formula expression to achieve some operations which default slicer features not support. e.g. or logic filter, reverse filter...) Applying a measure filter in Power BI 

    Perhaps You can submit an idea to improve the slicers features.
