Power BI: Control Visuals with Slicers

Course description

Power BI – Slicers in Action Across Visuals is a practical course designed to help learners master the use of slicers to create interactive, user-friendly reports and dashboards. Slicers are dynamic filtering tools that allow users to control what data is displayed across visuals, making them essential for personalized and responsive reporting. Learners begin by preparing their reports for slicer integration, organizing visuals across pages to optimize layout and usability. The course introduces various slicer types, including tile-based and list-based slicers, and demonstrates how to apply them to visuals such as donut charts, tree maps, and maps. Participants will learn how to format slicers, adjust font sizes, enable “Select All” options, and position slicers for maximum clarity. The course also covers advanced slicer techniques, including syncing slicers across multiple pages and visuals. Learners will explore how to control slicer visibility and influence visuals without displaying the slicer itself, ensuring consistent storytelling across reports. These techniques are especially useful for dashboards with limited space or complex filtering needs. By the end of the course, learners will be equipped to design and apply slicers that enhance interactivity, improve user experience, and support dynamic data exploration. This course is ideal for Power BI users who want to take full advantage of slicers to build smarter, more engaging reports.
