As has been partly implemented with Filters, it would be very useful to have slicers that could apply to all pages of a report. This would allow users to interact more easily.

The most exciting news so far this year! In the February release of Power BI Desktop we've shipped the ability to synchronize slicers on different pages in your report! You can read more about how the feature works here: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-february-2018-feature-summary/#syncSlicers Thanks again for everyone's feedback and votes on this feature. We do listen to you so keep voting and let us know what other things you need us to prioritize.

'@Will

Can you apply this to all visuals and not just slicers? For all visuals to have the capacity to filter data across all pages.

After all, all visuals can be used as a slicer at some degree.

Ditto on Michael Shparber comment:

Wait, guys, @Kim, just make sure it also covers the scenario where I want to click on MULTIPLE charts without it cancelling the previous selection! Let's say I click on a bar chart that shows Months and select a bar for May, then, I click on a pie for Products and select "Bicycles".
All the data should now be filtered of May + Bicycles (without me having to select anything additionally in slicers).

I heartily endorse this initiative, I think it would be especially valuable for mobile uses where the first page could use all the real estate. (obviously requires hiding on subsequent pages)

I'd also like to note I'm re-reading "M Is For Data Monkey (Puls & Escobar) as part of my resolutions, and find in the forward a thank-you for Will "There's a Way. I'm going to assume that is you, Mr. Thomson. Thanks for leading the way!

Is this imminent?

Glad to hear that this is started - looking forward to it!

It's the biggest report design and user interaction gap that prevents us from pushing forward with Power BI across many of our projects
