15 TopicsSelect all with search in slicer
The default slicer doesn't have the functionality to select all results that the search returns. Currently, all the desired values from the search output should be selected manually, which is tedious if the user wants to select a good number of values from the slicer. Having a "select all" option together with the search output, which allows the user to select all the results from the search would be a useful addon.32KViews97likes9CommentsAbility to Change A Slicer's Eraser Icon's Color
This one is pretty self-explanatory and one I think has been on here a couple times. When we use custom colors the eraser icon doesn't always clearly show up and my customers seem inconsolable that they have to "de-select" their selections from within a slicer (since they think the eraser doesn't exist or went away--not sure which that case is, but that's neither here nor there). It'd be nice to just set the icon to Black or something--even if it wasn't full hex control/functionality like we've comes to love elsewhere within the software.

When using a date slicer it would be great if it existed an option "earliest date" (or latest). The issue is that when you have a table that is constantly adding new records, with a date column, the default status of the slicer gets outdated. Example: the default status of the slicer, and where the bookmark was saved is on period 2019.05. When a new record 2019.06 is added to the table, the bookmark needs to be saved and bookmark updated, this every month. I know there are DAX workarounds, I am using them, but an "latest date" option on the date filter would save us this extra work.42KViews154likes10CommentsSuggestion: Dynamic Coloring of Card Visuals Based on Slicer Selections
Dear Microsoft Power BI Team, I'd like to suggest a feature for Power BI that would enhance its interactivity and user experience. It would be great if we could have an option to dynamically color Card visuals based on selections made in Slicers. Specifically, I envision a functionality where selecting an item in a slicer highlights or changes the color of a corresponding Card visual. When the item is deselected in the slicer, the Card visual would then return to its default color. This would provide an immediate, visual indicator of the slicer selection, which could greatly enhance the understanding and readability of our dashboards. Having this functionality would be particularly useful in scenarios where multiple Cards are present on the dashboard, and we want to direct the viewer's attention to specific Cards based on slicer selections. Thank you for considering this suggestion. I believe this feature would greatly benefit all users and help create more interactive, dynamic, and user-friendly reports.

One of the few bad user experiences with our Power BI Report dashboards generated from Microsoft AS Tablular databases is searching by name or code in a slicer when the source table is large. It can take several seconds for the results to come back, which is not bad in isolation but can be very frustrating for someone who is repeatedly selecting from the list. For these cases it would be helpful to enable the slicer to use a full text index search a combined name/code field.1.3KViews2likes0CommentsAdd an 'on date' option to the date slicer with a calendar selection
When using a date slicer there is an option to select "between", "before" and "after" and select using a calendar. There is no option to have an "on date" option and select using a calendar. Instead users must filter the date using either the dropdown, list or the filter panel. All of these have navigation and usability drawbacks. This request is to add an option to the list of date selections called "on date" that presents a single date field with a calendar.1.3KViews3likes0CommentsA Between option for the Relative Date Filter
Hello Everyone, A common issue i often come accross when building reports is finding the best way to show date filtering and also keep the dates dynamic. The Relative Date option for the Slicer is an awesome tool, but it sadly has a major drawback. My customers are not able to both view back and forward in time at the same time. This is especially an issue when dealing with forecasts, since holding a forcast up to historic values is very important. What i suggest is to add a "Between" or "Combine" option under the "Last", "Next" and "This" options. So the customer can choose to see 4 months back and 3 months ahead for instance, since today this needs to be hardcoded into a calendar table, if the date also needs to move dynamically. I believe that this change would please a lot og users and make the "Relative Date" option much more useable. Thanks in advance2.9KViews13likes0CommentsAllow change of Date Filter for Service and Embedded
Hi, In our organization we alwasy use the "Relative Date" as the standard mode for the Date Filter. When talking to users many like the feature for its useability but just as many are asking if they can select a specific period, and we have to tell them no. Sure this can be optained through highlighting periods in a table or visual, however this fix is "temporary" for the user and not a hard filter across pages. The function is avaliable in Desktop through the "Slicer Header" to change it but i cant give that option to the user in service or embedded. Please make the "Slicer Header" customization avaliable for users in Service and Embedded as well:2.1KViews0likes0Comments
