PowerBI Custom Visuals defaulting (Chiclet Slicer)
Hi,
in the demonstration video, lhe Logo field is used as an image field, but when i try to import binary images in Power Bi Desktop, the field is hidden so i cant use this feature in the chiclet.
How to use iamges in the chiclet now ?
You need to use an image URL. I store my images in blob and reference the URL fo the image in a table joined to the related field I am showing in the Chiclet.

I am not sure if this is a limiation or a data problem I am seeing but. I have 250 country flags that I am trying to render in a Chiclet Slicer. I get to about 25 images in to the list and then the 25th image repeats for the next entries.
Screen shot attached. Any ideas. I check the imageUrls for special characters that might trip up PowerBI but did not see anything signficant.

Hum. As it is exactly 25 images, I would guess that it is a limit. Does it only occur if you have only 1 column of icons? Is the cut-off related to the "currently visible elements" (e.g., when you scroll down the slicer it also loads the other pictures)?
By the way: Would you be willing to share your set of icons for the countries? :o

I gound the icon set with a bing search I will look for the original URL.
I do not think there is a numeric limit as the area where repeating starts seems to be inconsistent.
