Power BI Feb 2018 Update - Whole Number Slicer

I am trying to create a slicer based off of a whole number within my dataset.  The data is categorized as a whole number but when I put the column into the slicer I do not have options to do anything other than "List" or "Dropdown".  Is there any way to fix this issue?

I found out what the issue was.  I was not aware that you needed to turn this feature on within the options tab.  Thanks for your help  @Vvelarde

Hi review the type of the column.

 

I think that is declare like TEXT instead of Whole Number.

Changing the data type to a text instead of whole number does not seem to do anything.
