Slicer clearing
Anonymous,
I have about 281 Vendors. At any given time we are actively watching about 20 - 35 of them. I create a slicer for the vendors (281) and then select 25 to watch. Later, I go back to add more to the display of watched vendors so in the slicer I select 5 more. When I click the first new one to add, I lose 5 or so of the ones that were previously already selected. I am not filtering to get a top selection. We make a manual selection using the slicer by checking the box by the vendor name.
I have tried using the filter to filter the report down to those vendors but the filter does not always show all 281 choices.
I have submitted a ticket but will share this in the forum you suggested as well.
kcantor Sounds like a bug... The only other thing I'll mention is have you tried re-creating the slicer? I've seen weird things happening when visuals were changed from one visual to another, or filters that were applied to an old visual impacting the existing... might be worth checking to see if re-creating works. (you may have done this already)
Anonymous, Yes, I deleted and recreated the slicer. I have also tried multiple slicers. The only consistenecy is that it loses some of the selections when you add more.
I will update this when I heal back on my ticket.
