Hi all,

 

I am using the following version of BI:

I am trying to have a slicer as a drop down option, however in the slicer setting i do not have a option for drop down - the closest that shows is under layout where i can choose a single column, but not a drop down that was previously availabe:

Hi @arumel ,

 

Use the old slicer. The new one doesn't have an option to be a dropdown.
