Solved: Re: List Slicer Visual Issue - Page 2

Hi all

I have a couple of list slicers in published reports that are set to show a maximum of four lines. However, in service they are showing a maximum of eight lines with all the data squashed into lines half the desired size. Even if I'm viewing the report where one line would be present, it is squashed.

The list slicers look fine in desktop and I've tried clearing cache and different browsers and it still didn't help. Any thoughts?

I had a response from PBI Engineer yesterday. I am a little disappointed with the response considering the list slicers were working perfectly on my reports and then suddenly stopped working. If it was a preview problem like they stated, I would have expected them to not work at all. My guess is there is some coding conflict going on which can't be easily fixed:

Good afternoon Joe,

I hope you are having a nice week. I have been discussing internally the issue with my colleagues and I wanted to share that this feature is still in Preview and only available for PBI Desktop, so the team is working to continually improve it.

List slicer (preview) considerations and limitations - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

So, it is suggested not to use them in Prod environments.

That said, we are committed to resolving this topic and ensuring your satisfaction, so please let me know if you have any further concerns or additional comments from your side and need any additional assistance from our side on this. I’d love to make sure you’re happy and everything’s clear.

Sincerely, best regards,

Miquel Pera

Thank you for the update @jaorton . I understand your frustration, especially since the slicers were working well before and then suddenly stopped functioning as expected. It can be challenging when a feature changes unexpectedly. The engineer response matches the official position since list slicers are still in preview, they aren’t officially supported in the Service.

However, I agree it doesn’t clarify why they worked previously and now do not, which seems more like a regression than a limitation. It appears this is due to a change in how the Service layer renders preview visuals.Unfortunately, this isn’t something we can resolve from the report side.

Thank you for taking the time to share your input here.
