how to hide the blank selection in slicer

slicer with blank.JPGfilter.JPGslicer with blank 2.JPG

Hello, I would like to know how to hide the blank in slicer. the first screenshot is the original slicers with blank selection. after filtered "is not blank" for FY outlook, the YTD actual slicer changed (total selection reduced from 6 to 4). How to just hide the blank in slicer instead of filter out blank (do not want to affect another slicer due to fliter out blank). thanks

 

Best regards

ER

@erihsehc,

 

Currently, to remove a blank selection in a slicer, we can use this technique. Drag your field onto the canvas and Select the Visual in which you can filter the blank value using page level filters and then change that visual to the slicer. That's it.

 

So if we add a page level filter, it will have impact for others visual. I am afraid there is no such an option to aviod this issue. 

 

Thank you for your understanding.
