How to add the different color for each value in slicer

[@ANSANMAYITIPAPPERI]

hi, it is possible to change the format about the time. example I have an chicklets slicer who show me the hour like this! 1:25:22 AM or 3:00;34 PM it is possible to change this on Time french like 13H instead of this english and 15H instead 3PM Thank you for advance.

[@TheProjectCorner]

Hi Ansanm, you might want to look at creating a dax measure for the time that you visualise. In dax you can set the date format. Or you could explore the date format options in the native field and the chicklet slicer.

How to set default Chiclet values like there are On-Hold. Current, Active in this Slicer. How do I make Current as the Default value for this? Thanks

[@TheProjectCorner]

Hi Philip, thanks for the wuestion. The Chiclet visual retains your settings when you publish. So, if you set the filter to Current, and publish the report, people will see that as the default.

[@ashleycengiz1495]

Does anyone know if its possible to select two options ONLY at a time with the chiclet slicer? AKA Months, only two months at a time?

[@TheProjectCorner]

Hi Ashley, deselect all but the 2 months, would do the trick I believe. In the dettings for the visual you have a couple of options to check. One is "single select" or "force single value" you don't want that

[@ashleycengiz1495]

@@TheProjectCorner I mean only enable someone to click on any two months at a time (no more, no less). I have changed it around a bit more now, thankyou though!

Info: The base64 text lenght must be less then 33.000 chars. and its approximately 22KB file size.

[@TheProjectCorner]

Ah I didn't know, thanks for sharing Ne Haber

[@walteradamsbe]

How weird is that: if you put on "single selection" you can still "selected multiple values if that would be appropriate" ?!? How can that be appropriate if as report builder you have opted to go for single select. I don't understand that reasoning but maybe someone can explain.
Thanks

[@TheProjectCorner]

Sadly, I have no explanation for you on this, it is strange.

[@ammarqureshi8955]

Is there a way to add tooltips? (Not the help tooltip)

[@TheProjectCorner]

What would you include as tooltip on a selection slicer? Maybe an example would help.

[@ammarqureshi8955]

Any further data point such as card visual or table to give more details about what appears on the chiclets..
