Comparing the same chart with two different filters

Hello

 

Something I get asked a lot for in my Power BI reports is the ability to compare two different sets of slicer selections on the same chart. The report users want to make a slicer selection, then somehow save that chart, make a different selection and then compare the new chart to the saved one. 

 

Does the Power BI service have this capability?

 

Thanks.

Hi, @Newcolator 

Based on your problem and requirement description, I think the Power BI feature that is closest to your needs is "Export to pdf/ppt", you can choose in different slicer selection cases and then export to PDF/ppt and select "Export with current status", so that you can get a copy report in two different selection cases and compare them. For a more detailed description and step-by-step reference, please refer to this official document:
