Never even explored that whole APPLY option. That's why I watch these videos regardless of how 'basic' they may seem from the title. There is ALWAYS something new to learn!

Thank you so much - I was hitting my head against the proverbial brick wall trying to figure out how to limit the slicer filters to only certain visuals. This video solved it! One kind of annoying quirk (possible bug?) I found with this was that if you are trying to control interactions with several visuals of mixed types (for example, 5 cards + a bar chart), you have to click on your filter first and activate it *before* going to the interactions button and clicking on that to selectively turn on/off the interactions on each visual. In my case, initially I had the bar chart highlighted and when I went to the interactions button, the option to turn the filter off was not there, but it showed up for the 5 cards. I couldn't figure out why it wasn't giving me the option to turn the filtering off for the bar chart and it was simply an order of precedence issue.

Hi Guys! I'd like to see a video from you in the same vein about the filtering/cross-filtering impact on DAX statments i.e. ALL(), ALLSELECTED(), ALLCROSSFILTERED(), KEEPFILTERES(), etc.. I know from experience it's very easy to get lost in intentions vs. what is output from your measures.

Hi Mr. Adam, do you have a technique or solution on how to use DAX or any other method using a button to set as a default the first record in a table visual in PBI. I have a table visual with a list of names with a add_date on the first column and want to make sure that when the user opens this page in PBI the first row is selected. I love your clarity and way of explaining things on technical solutions. Hope to hear from you soon my friend.

Very much depends on the amount of data you are using and how its accessed.. What I'd like to see is how to group slicers to impact data displays.. for example, three tables of financial transactions, orders, sales each with a transaction date... Is it better to have a group of slicers that interact on each tables dates or to link all dates to a calendar table and slice only on that date?
@radekou
@radekou 3 жыл бұрын
Good comparison. One small detail I've noticed on my reports too - 3:01 - despite interaction being disabled, the table still "flickers" whenever the slicer value is changed. Not a big deal, just wondering what's the technical reason behind it.

Hi Guys. Great video as always. Is there a way to conditional format a card visual based on a categorical column. Ex: Conditional Formatting a Game Score (1-0, 4-5) in a Card depending upon the result (Win, Lose, Draw)

There really needs to be override options on the filter panel. So I can set an all pages filter , but then on an individual page I want to say ‘ignore all page filters’ Or on a specific visual I want to say ‘ignore all page filters’ or ‘ignore this page filters’

Big downside to slicers for me is when it comes to users exporting reports as PDF or PowerPoint which does not reflect any changes made in slicer selection when generating the file. Using Filters works with exports so we have stopped using slicers to avoid confusion.
@dms9822
@dms9822 3 жыл бұрын
One way around this is to create a paginated report export where the slicer values can be passed as parameter values. It is also useful when the row count is too large for excel export. Paginated reports are also exported as a pdf or PowerPoint.

I think another other point... it's with filter, you can personalize yours slicers... In the example you can use the filter to chose who years can you see in the slicer....

My Slicer has only 2 options "List" and "Dropdown" I updated to the lastest version of PowerBI , But still I can't see all the options that you have available in this video. Please, could you tell me how can I enable the other options?

Hi! Clients who are used to QlikView often wants to only se the filter options that will give you any hits. For example, if i choose 2021 from dimYear, my filter on product category from dimProduct is espected to only show the products who is sold so far in 2021. Its solved in Slicers with a Visual-only filter in filter pane saying only show post where my measure SalesAmout is not blank. Any thoughts here? Is that possible between dimensions (without ugly tricks as calculated columns in fact table with RELATED and then show filter from fact table)? Thanks!

hi, is it possible yet to get the slicer to auto-select? example, slicer with Week No.s, for it to select todays week or is there a work around this?
@arya4it
@arya4it 3 жыл бұрын
There is a work around for this. Create a calculated column which will define week as Latest Week E.g. Week 1 Week 1 Week 2 Week 2 Week 3. Latest Week Now use this new column in slicer and in that select Latest Week Since the slicer shows the default selection which is in this case Latest Week which can represents any week. Hope this helps.

@@arya4it Thanks for the tip. For anyone else thats interested, I have an autoCalendar with an additional field with "Relative Week", IF( WEEKNUM( [Date], 21) = WEEKNUM( TODAY(), 21), "Current Week", YEAR ( [Date] ) & "-" & FORMAT(WEEKNUM([date], 21),"00") ) In my Slicer this shows as: 2021-01, 2021-02, 2021-03, Current Week (Limited to 4 weeks) Select, "Current Week" as the selected slicer and it will always be selected. When we move into future weeks, "Current Week" will still be selected but the weeks will move forward +1, e.g. 2021-02, 2021-03, 2021-04, Current Week
