Hi @vishal10306 ,

 

I understand what you mean, but unfortunately this is not currently possible in Power BI Desktop.

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.

 

You can substitute the following programs:

You can create two slicers and two bookmarks, in bookmark 1, hide slicer 2, in bookmark 2 hide slicer 1, and then create two buttons for switching between bookmarks.
If this doesn't help you, look in the Custom Visual Objects store to see if there is a suitable date slicer.

Hi @vishal10306 ,

 

According to your description, here are my steps you can follow as a solution.

(1) We can create a calendar table.

Date = CALENDAR(DATE(2022,1,1),DATE(2023,12,31))

(2) We can add two bookmarks.

(3) Then create a bookmark navigator and then the result is as follows.

Thanks @Anonymous for your reply... but this is not the solution I am looking for. 
There are 2 rado buttons and selected radiobutton slicer will be considered to slice the data.
and predefined slicer is dropdown with different redefined values.

Thanks
