How to Build Custom Slicer Panels in Power BI Desktop (PBIX File Included!)

Video Description

It's time for a Power BI Pro Tip! In this video, Maven Analytics Founder Chris Dutton will demonstrate how to build interactive Power BI reports and apps using custom slicer panels. We’ll start by adding a button to our navigation pane on the Adventure Works report we developed in our Power BI Desktop course. From there, we’ll design the slicer panel, add slicers for years and continents, and add buttons and bookmarks that allow users to toggle the slicer panel on and off. 📆 Coming Soon: January Jumpstart 2026! 📆 Join us January 5th - 16th to jumpstart the new year with LIVE instructor-led learning sessions and FREE course access to our top career & AI learning paths.
