    Hi , Anonymous 

    Yes, you are right! And thanks for your quick response!

    You can't do this as this is an in-built functionality in Power BI. There is already an ideaa posted for this feature. You can vote up for this using following link:

    Microsoft Idea (powerbi.com)

     

    And by another , now you can only delete the step in  the "Filter" Pane, like this:

     

    Thank you for your time and sharing, and thank you for your support and understanding of PowerBI!

Hi Aniya, 

 

Thanks for the reply!

I tried out the Text Filter custom visual but it only allows me to insert one column in there. It is a little restricted when in comes to multiple columns from different dimension and fact tables. But I will do a little research whether there is a workaround for that i.e. make a new table with one column that has all of the necesary values concatenated. Still seems like a little hussle.

And the 'include/exclude' problem is still there 😄 There's no way to even disable it. And the client keeps asking why is it even there if it just confuses everyone and does not allow to revert to previous view.
