Slicer - make year not selectable

[hashtag_pete]

Hello everyone, 

I was wondering if the following setting with unselectable parameters is possible:

I have a slicer with year and month like this

with the slicer setting "single select" turned on. 
Can I disable the selection of the years somewhere? I still want them to be shown, in order to signal the respective year, but if one selects the year, it basically is a hidden selection of 12 month. 

Thanks to you all.

Best

Hi @hashtag_pete 

The built-in slicer doesn't have this feature. But you can use a custom visual HierarchySlicer to meet your need. 

Select Leafs only for Selection type.

Yes, there is a hierarchy. But I do not want to hide the year, I just want to have it non-selectable. 

As I have the setting to "just select one month" (=single select" in slicer setting), selecting the year radio button would overrule this.

Hi @hashtag_pete ,

I don't yhink you can achieve that in a hierarchy slicer.

Hierarcy works on the principle of selecting something in the top hierarchy and then selecting something in the lower hierarchy.

Hi @hashtag_pete ,

Just seeing the screenshot, I can see that you are moving a hierarchy to your slicer - Year --> Month

You can't hide YEAR in this case.

May be try creating 2 different slicers - One of YEAR and another one for MONTH.

See if that helps.

Thanks,
