Glitches in New Slicer of Power BI desktop

When the new slicer is used while making the dashboard, I encountered  2 types of problems :
1. The new slicer is in tile-only formtat. So when a column of options is made from  data , and then any external filter/slicer is applied, the height of tiles changes. Ideally, it should remain constant and rest of space should remain vacant, as shonw in various third party slicers, but here height changes .
2. when a particular data column is added in reference labels sections, the alphannumeric values will be shown correctly , like a-z,0-9, but if we have to add %age [like for yes/no slicer], if there the ratio is 60%-40%, the reference label will not present data correctly, it will first show values as decimals[.6-.4] which is not required format sometimes and even if we try to do 60%-405 manually via measure , it will still not % sign after the number.
This causes great confusion, while presentations. Will wait eagerly from Microsoft for any update reagrding these 2 glitches in New Slicer visual

Hi @Rakshhitt_1_2 ,

 

Thanks for the feedback, as it's still a preview feature, the PG team has been working on optimizing it.

Can you provide detailed version information so we can reproduce the issue? We'll get back to the product team as soon as it's acknowledged as an issue!
Thanks in advance!

 

Best regards.

@AnonymousFor first scenario, check out the 2 images uploaded. first with no filter, all 4 tiles shwoing in 2X2 grid format slicer. in next photo, when we apply any external slicer/filter, the height and width of slicer tile will change based on the selection which does not look impressive with rest of visuals having fixed length,width.
For second bug, you can check third image, In Callout Values section of slicer -> In label part, when we enter normal alphanumeic thing, it will show correctly as shown in left-hand slicer, but when we try to add %age as label in slicer tile, it will just show as ratio, even if it is correctly formatted as %, which can be checked in table present above slicers.
