Following the article, I was able to show/hide line charts through applying card measure over line/bar charts visual. It is also required for the project to show/hide other slicers based on primary slicer value. please see attached image
The interaction with slicer's Dropdown icon is not possible once applying card measure over the secondary slicers. Is there any way through DAX or other workaround to send the transparent card back to original visual (slicer in this case) for interaction? Thanks so much.
Just to update if you face similar issue, this issue has been resolved through using buttons (instead of slicer) for the Interval values. Then used bookmarks and selection pane to show/hide other slicers/visuals. I found this way much easier and interactive. Thanks.

For the purpose of building an Excel survey form, I want to create an easy rating entry system that would set values in cells based on a single click on a rating object (form control). With this click on say a 5-stars object it would return a value (from 1 to 5) based on which star is clicked (0 if not clicked), value that would be stored in a linked cell. The form should have such 5-stars objects next to a list of questions.
Using Excel built-in controls would limit option to the spin button, which isn't as convenient.
I haven't found any other suitable controls, nor ActiveX (which would make it more difficult to share the sheet).
Thanks for your insights on how I can achieve this.
If you are willing to digress from your wish to have stars as buttons, the excel form controls seem to be more than able of what you are looking for. You could use Option Buttons to achieve something like this:
A detailed guide on how to use these Buttons can be found here
I have intermediate excel skills and am relatively new to pivot charts and slicers. I have made a pivot chart out of production-related data. Next to the chart is a slicer that displays all the different products in production. Basically, whenever the user clicks on one of the products in the slicer, it displays a bar graph mixed with a line graph. If the bars are exceeding the line, then the product is considered "critical" (it is exceeding production capacity). I want to use conditional formatting (or another method, preferably not a macro) to highlight the products on the slicer in red that are critical.
Thanks in advance for your help.
You can't conditionally format Slicer Items. Instead, your best bet is to use a second PivotTable that only shows the critical products in it.
Is it possible for excel to prevent the drop down toggle on a cell which has data validation? I am wanting the data validation to apply, but i would prefer the drop down button to not appear.
The reason for this, is the user is not having to choose a value, instead they handheld scan their ID badge.
I have searched everywhere and cannot find a solution.
Thanks in advance.
You just need to uncheck the In-Cell Drop-down checkbox.
Essentially what I have done so far is create a dropdown menu using the Data Validation tab within the 'Data' tab in Excel. Using a SS I will show what exactly I'm trying to do.
If this can also potentially be done with a vba macro please let me know.
Essentially, when I change the data (where the blue arrow is) I want different data values to appear in the table (in the red circle) for each different item in the dropdown box
Please let me know if this is possible in Excel, thanks in advance for the help!
I am currently able to use the tile feature in Power View to view data much more quickly. However I haven't figured out a way to have nested tiles to further drill down into the relevant data.
For example, I want a tile strip at the top of my view of all the different "Projects." Once I click on a tile, I want to see all the relevant data for that project and have part of that container have a strip of tiles to show "Risks, Issues, Action Items, etc." and other items in a list. See image in this link (it is a non-working dashboard, but showing you all to get a better idea of the hierarchy).
Does any one know how to do this? I know I can use slicers instead for one of the levels or view filters but I want to be able to use tiles for both.
If you use a slicer within your tile it will almost do what you want. However, you wouldn't get the nice icons for warning & error to be the source of selection. You could make it more visual by separately having a table that includes the images so that when a user selects a slicer value, it shows the appropriate icon.
