I have a PowerBI sheet consisting of multiple visuals and one slicer. The underlying data set includes one column called "selected" consiting of either "1" or "null". I want the slicer to always be default setted to only show data where the data entries in column "selected" are equal to "1". I want that the user is still possible to modify the selection and then be able to press a button to return to the pre-selection. I found no way possible to do this. Do you guys have any idea? I am pretty new to PowerBI.
I only found a way to pre-select the whole sheet or slicer to only show values where "selected" =1 but I want the user to be able to further select data. Also I only saw solutions for pre-selected slicer based on dates (e.g. most recent date is pre-selected).
What you need to do is to preselect all filter and save "bookmark" (view tab in powerbi desktop); Then you can assign a bookmark to the button.

I have a slicer and a map set to be interactive. The slicer behaves accordingly, but the other way is not. When a click a county in the map, my whole dashboard reflects the data accordingly. But when I choose a different county using the slicer, while the map selection is still active, I get no data because the initial county selected remains active. IS there a way to make interactivity between slicer and map? I mean map to slicer?
i think your issue here is that both the slicer and map are set to filter whole page. you can either remove one of them and apply filter to each visual separately or apply a measure using CALCULATE(Measure,ALL(….
I have a table with multiple columns, I would like to add a "Previous Date Slicer" so that there is a column that will fetch data from previous dates that the user selects, but it applies this slicer to the entire table so I can't actually create a comparative column and the entire table is filled with data from the dates I have selected.
The intent is that the Previous Data Column will display the information from the previous dates I selected in the slicer column, creating a comparison. One column will have the current dates data, and the other column will have the previous dates data from dates the user specified.
you should be able to do this by "Edit Interactions" feature.
When you have the slicer highlighted you will see a "Format" pane in the top many and the first button on this page is the one you want. One you enabled "Edit Interactions" some extra icons will apear on the other objects and all object is by default set to filter. You can change the object you don't want to be filtered by the slicer to "None"
I have a scenario where I am using date and country slicers along with maps in my report along with some stacked charts.
When I click on the map for one country it filters the data based on that country I have selected but the filter is not reflected in slicers.
Is there any way that I can use the map only to display the counts without having select, in other words, no selection allowed on the maps?
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks!
Go to Format tab and select Edit Interaction option as shown in the below image. Now select your Map visual and set Filter = None in other visuals you don't like to interact when click on the Map.
I need to add calculated column that would ignore values selected in a slicer:
I tried:
all users = ALL(Sheet1[UserName])
But it gives me an error: A table of multiple values was supplied where a single value was expected.
A calculated column cannot be affected by a slicer but that's not what you seem to be referring to.
It appears you are trying to create a visual that lists all the users. For this, you can put Username on a table visual and disable the filtering from the slicer by going to the Format tab and clicking Edit interactions.
If I understand you correctly, You have to use ALL() Function by
creating new table Under the modelling tab
Is there any possibility to show or hide the column in Table/Matrix visual in Power BI report by user dynamically?
For Example, I have a table view with columns COLUMN-1, COLUMN-2, COLUMN-3. Now I may have filter drop down to list all the column headers, so based on user selection (Multiple selections) Table view should get adjusted to show column values.
Since Power BI was developed based on Excel, curious to know if we are having Hide/Show column based on any condition or available in visual by default (Maybe by right-clicking on column header then show/hide it).
You can do this with the following workaround:
Create your page with the table showing both columns.
Create a bookmark, uncheck "Data"
Duplicate the page and remove the column you want to conditionally hide. Set the page as hidden.
Create a bookmark, uncheck "Data"
Add a button to the first page pointing to the 2nd bookmark
Add a button to the second page pointing to the 1st bookmark
Ensure your slicers are synced
The end user experience is they will feel like they are conditionally hiding and unhiding the column.
A bit crap and a lot of extra work but I have it working well in my implementation.
Currently it is not possible to hide columns in visual based on slicer selection, there is an idea about this issue, please vote it up.
