Sync slicers
Configure sync slicers
share one selection across report pages, even when the is hidden on some pages.
One slicer selection across pages
lets one selection affect several report pages. The can be visible everywhere, visible on selected pages, or hidden while its filter still applies.
Sync and visibility are separate
A page can receive the slicer's filter even when readers cannot see the slicer there. This is useful for a clean layout, but it can also create confusing hidden filter state.
| Setting | Question |
|---|---|
| Sync | Should this page receive the selection? |
| Visible | Should readers see the slicer on this page? |
Link separate slicers with groups
Slicer groups can synchronize separate slicer visuals across pages. Depending on the settings, the grouped slicers can share filter changes, field changes, or both while retaining page-specific formatting.
Exam clue: filtered page with no visible slicer often means Sync is on while Visible is off.
Key points
- Sync: applies selection to another page
- Visible: independently controls display
- Formatting: synced copies can differ by page
