sync slicer not working on live pages?

Hi there,

 

I have published a report to the Power BI Service. In the report I have 3 sheets and use the sync slicer functionality. In the report it works great; when i filter on sheet 1, the other sheets get filtered too :)

 

However, I published the same report (3 sheets) as 3 live pages on a single dashboard. When i use a slicer on the first tile/live page, the other tiles/live pages are not filtered! 

 

Am I missing something here? Is it a bug or known limit due to how live pages work?

 

Thanks in advance for the answers.

      Thanks for the reply. I believe it should work if i pin my entire report on a dashboard, otherwise I see no reason to create a dashboard at all (even though most reports I have built are not pinned as live pages).

       

      In the past I tried to fit that report on one sheet, tinkering with the resolution to expand it. But after publishing it to a dashboard Power BI somehow tries to autocorrect that strange resolution so I am left with a useless tile, see https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Custom-Report-Size-to-Dashboard/m-p/198472#M26851
