The ability to configure a slicer to only be able to select one attribute at a time - similar to a radio button. I would like to disable the ability for people to either choose select all or choose multiple slicers.

Hi everyone! The slicer now supports a radio button mode too, with real single-select behaviour. You'll see updated options in the property pane that let you control this. Thanks for your patience and feedback!

RE: single selection slicer

'@Will Thompson - Excellent news. Hopefully a fairly simple quick win. Will there be a way of defaulting the selection that also takes RLS into account, ie default to first or last of the available options?

RE: single selection slicer

Please, also add the possibility to force a default selection, so not All is selected when starting the page.

RE: single selection slicer

This is more of a bug report than a feature request, as a single select slicer exists but has been implemented badly.

RE: single selection slicer

Yes - this feature is definitely required in certain situations.

RE: single selection slicer

Agree! Not only to allow only single select but also force a selection
