Key Features

A page fills up fast when every slicer sits on the canvas next to your charts. The tidy answer is to give the slicers their own page that users open when they want to filter and leave when they're done — but in Power BI that's more moving parts than it sounds. You need a hidden page, a copy of each slicer that stays in step with the original, filter and back buttons with their own default and hover icons, and a bookmark that opens the page. Get the slicer link wrong and a selection on the filter page quietly fails to filter your charts.

This skill stands the whole thing up from one command. Your slicers move off the canvas, a filter button opens the page, and a back button returns — selections still drive every visual on the main page — run it with /config-page.

How it works

Type /config-page, name the main page and the slicers to move, and the skill sets it all up:

  1. Builds the filter page — a new hidden page with a clean white background

  2. Moves your slicers across — places a copy of each slicer on the filter page, neatly stacked, and links it to the original so the two always agree

  3. Clears the canvas — hides the originals on the main page so they keep filtering without taking up space

  4. Adds the buttons — a filter button on the main page that opens the filter page, a back button that returns, and a Clear button that resets the selections

  5. Wires the bookmarks — one to open the filter page, one to clear the selections without closing anything

What you get

  • A hidden filter page — out of sight for report readers, opened by the filter button

  • Your slicers, moved across — one copy per slicer on the filter page, kept in step with the hidden originals

  • The originals still working — hidden on the main page but still filtering every visual

  • A filter button — on the main page, with its own default and hover icons, opens the filter page

  • A back button — returns to the main page without wiping the selections you just made

  • A Clear button — resets every selection on the filter page in one click

  • The slicer pairings, listed — printed at the end so you can see which main-page slicer is linked to which copy
