    Ability to only have one apply button on a report to apply changes to slicers (new buttons added into Nov Update) rather than each slicer having an apply button as presently they make reports look untidy and confusing

    RE: Only one apply button on Power BI slicer selection

    This is not usable currently. We need one apply button for a page/group of slicers. Can we get an update on this?

    I cannot believe we actually need to vote on this...only been more than a year since requested.

    Please add. This is would massively help direct query performance with large datasets. The current state is not usable when there are several slicers on a page.

    RE: Only one apply button on Power BI slicer selection

    Totally agree, having muliple slicers all having an Apply button under them is ugly and unnecessary.
    If there was an option to include 1 single apply button that would filter multiple slicer selections then that would be ideal.
    Currently I can't see a use case for the current format.

    RE: Only one apply button on Power BI slicer selection

    Ability to hide/show button, so slicer would look/behave as the older version. This button takes a lot of space and can be confusing/tedious for end users. Since buttons were introduced as new visuals they (or one of them) should have action "apply" to all slicers.
