    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.

    This would be an extremely useful feature for large data sets, or visuals that are meant to be comparative between categories, but with many categories to select from.

    If we could simply incorporate the Forced Selection option like the Chiclet Slicer has that would be wonderful.

    RE: Slicer mandatory selection property

    Please add this feature as soon as possible. When dealing with huge datasets, end-user experience may be ruined by deselecting all filters.

    Without this feature, many reports and dashboards may be "broken" by user deselecting options to view "All". This must be remedied soon. Simply add a toggle to say "Mandatory Select" and many users will see immense value with it.

    RE: Slicer mandatory selection property

    Please add this function. In some circumstances, the data doesn't make sense (at all) when there is no selection.
