Loading local images and use them as filter values

Hello

 

my aim was to upload some local images using them as filter values in my Power BI report. This last element is the thing which I'm not able to achieve.

 

I read some articles about how to upload images, I put them as binary in a SQL Server table, I imported the table in Power BI and then followed the steps (https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/How-to-use-Images-Stored-in-a-SQL-Server-Table-with-Power-B... for example). 

 

It all works well (except images dimension, but that could depend on my binary conversion), I see images as column values in a table, but if I use them as filter values, they are shown as strings, something like "data:image/jpg..." and not as images.

 

It's weird, the slicer works with images from simple Web URL's but not for the "image URLs" I have created, while they both work in a table visualization.

 

Why is it happening?
