Unable to modify common properties of selected visual controls of same type

Not sure if this has been already discussed/addressed, but I found a very annoying bug with the new December release!
It used to be that when you selected multiple visualization controls of the same type, you were able to update their common properties at once. This is no longer possible, you have to select each control and edit its properties separately. Example:
1. Drop 3 slicers on a page and assign them to a field
2. Select them all
3. In the visualizations pane, go to General
4. Select Properties
5. Expand Size
6. Set Height = 75, Width = 150
In the past, this process would update the height and width of all 3 slicers at once. This, no longer works and it is very annoying when working on pages with many visuals of the same type (charts, slicers, tables, etc.) that you might want to adjust common properties

I don't know if this is a side effect of the On-Object Interaction developement, (I have it turned-off), but please fix as this is a big productivity setback. I am reverting to the October release as this (to me) had been the least buggy version of PBI desktop lately

 

Thank you

Hi @tvav ,

 

If you would like to suggest feature improvements, you may vote the idea and comment here to improve this feature. It is a place for customers provide feedback about Microsoft Office products . What’s more, if a feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.

Scott, Thank you for the input, I appreciate it

However, this is not an idea or a suggestion.  It is a bug!  This process used to work from day 1 when Power BI was released.  It broke with the December 2023 release. 

That is the reason I posted it in the "Issues" forum.  Is this not correct?

@tvav,

 

This appears to have been resolved. Would you upgrade to the December 2023 release and confirm?
