The issue of the filter pane being difficult to discover has lead report creators to often resort to a combination of elements and bookmarks to mimic a filter pane within the report canvas. A potential solution could be to integrate the filter pane directly into the page canvas as a sidebar, allowing it to be collapsed or expanded either inward or outward, and relocated to different page borders, enhancing its visibility and usability.

a great thing would be to have the "sync slicers" function also availaible for the filters in the filter pane
And include an out of the box solution to make "what's filtered" more obvious to end users without having to spend valuable dev time making custom solutions.
Great idea, also current functionality that shows what’s filtered on the visual, should include what’s filtered using filter pane.
This is somewhat related to the following Epic idea: "Sync filters and slicers".
Artur your request to have "sync slicers" for "filters" should be under this epic considered.
The filter sidebar in Power BI is very clunky. But not having slicers that can accommodate default is the #1 issue with Power BI.

- We really need a fully customizable filters pane that is also discoverable by end users. Slicers on the page canvas should be optional.
