[Bug] Slicer visual in PBI service not reflecting format set

[nic_k]

This is how my visual looks like in PBI desktop, where both slicer and table is showing d/mm/yyyy

Formatting of the column in d/m/yyyy

Here is the visual  in the app.powerbi.com

Only the slicer visual is still showing m/d/yyyy

Checking on the data model through the service

hi rita,

this doesn't make sense if only 1 visual is affected while others are fine, especially when the format has been specified to d/mm/yyyy

Hi @nic_k 
You need the browser's default language to be in the needed format.
If you use a chrome, modify it to British English as a first language :

and then set a language of service as a browser's default:

Note that mobile it takes the language of the phone's settings to dates too.
