Select groups in a slicer

Hi, I wonder if there is a possibility to select a group of items in a slicer. For example, I have a list of product names and I need to select all product that start with "ad".

@Anonymous unfortunately this functionality doesn't exist, you can surely search by turning on the search on the slicer but you have to manually select all the values you get after the search.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Please try what @parry2k  said or you can try to create a new column as slicer.

start_2 = LEFT('Table'[Product],2)
