select multiple boxes in slicer

Did we just lose the ability to select multiple elements (boxes) in a slicer? I'm going to need to re-do all my reports!

    our team is experiencing this same issue, most of our group uses Mac's.  The workaround is to edit the slicer using the paitbrush menu navigate down to Selection Controls and set to OFF "Single Select", this will revert the slicer back to the original functionality with check marks in the box  and the ability to select multiple items on a MAC.

Same here.  I noticed on the Web I can change the slicer setting (turn off or on  One Selection);  but in Powerbi designer there is no such option (yet?).

ariepowerbi - I have sent an email to the Power BI team asking about this. There should be an option within the desktop to save your preference to a single/multi select slicer. I havent heard anything back about it yet.
