Custom Date Period Selections
The best way to deal with that is to prepare a couple of mockups (with buttons, without buttons, with slicers, without slicers), to conduct a user training on how to use the filter pane, and then to do usability studies with all versions. Your users will show you what they prefer.
In this case, I need a block, since filter 2 (customizable) limits the date range when used, interfering with the correct action of the predefined buttons.
e.g.: if I filter a period equivalent to the previous year in filter 2, the "Last month" button in filter 1 (predefined) does not work, the last month is outside the range already filtered from the previous year.
What I'm looking for is a way to reset the customizable filter so I can go back to using the predefined filter.
If you are a master in user experience, please indicate the best way to deal with this case or another solution for using a date filter combining predefined and customized periods.
