A property called "Mandatory select" would be nice under "Selection Controls" for the slicer. This would enforce filtering if the underlying dataset is very big. At least one value must be selected at all times if this property is turned on.

Just so you are all aware, if you have the available space in your report for a large slicer, the chiclet slicer has the capability to force selection.

Still waiting. This is embarrassing. So much work required to manually force a user to choose from a slicer.

RE: Slicer mandatory selection property

yes please! I need this to select the max(date) or Lastdate(date) or something like this. We want to show what's current, but allow viewing the past.

RE: Slicer mandatory selection property

A very important feature. Please implement. Chiclet Slicer in the market place has it but that one lacks the drop-down option.

RE: Slicer mandatory selection property

this would let us build beautiful interface for text only reports, instead of forcing us writing a crazy amount of DAX formulas.

please add this asap!
