Issue: Slicer automatically changes type from Dropdown to List

‎07-24-2018 09:43 AM

I have a slicers from power BI desktop in which I set to a dropdown type but after publishing it online and embedded it to my page it automatically changes the slicer type to List. I want my slicers to be in a dropdown type and I don't want the BI to change it automatically to different types. Is there an option setting that I need to change? Please help. Thank you so much.

Until this matter is fixed by PBI team, you could action as follows in Desktop:

1. Select Dropdown on your slicer
2. Create new bookmark of the page with this dropdown slicer

3. Replace old bookmark with a new one and adjust the setting of all your images, shapes etc linked to the old bookmark

Otherwise, it would seem PBI published report picks up the original version of the slicer with the List rather then Dropdown

Hope this helps
