The standard slicer takes up a lot of real estate. I like using the horizontal orientation to create the "button" effect, but they take up so much space. Please make them smaller. Thanks.

RE: Please reduce the size of the slicers

Slicers are much better in Power Pivot in every way, except that you can search the PBi type. PBi slicers definately need to be made more flexible/ It's curious that for some things that one hardly uses, and probably will never use, PBi seems to have a million settings, but, for slicers, two styles and one size fits all.

Yes, the slicers definitely need more customization options. Most annoying thing are the horizontal slicers with their crazy amount of useless white space inside and around the buttons, which is fixed, so it can't be reduced or controlled in any way.

The slicers need some serious formatting work. Can't change the selected color, can't adjust the size of buttons, can't change the colors of the arrow in a horizontal layout, the select all feature is buggy, no icons or conditional formatting.

It's about time!

Fully agree. Looks great as buttons, but takes up too much room. Need to be able to control the height and width of the items.

RE: Please reduce the size of the slicers

I agree. They are way too big with not enough customization.

Agree, why can't you reduce the space around the buttons? Or the size of the buttons?

Any news on this, the presentation in Power BI for slicer is terrible!
