The basic Slicer in power bi already has a search feature. My request is to add a way to select all search results in one click. For example, say I search a text column in the slicer for all values with "ipad" and I get 200+ results returned in the slicer. It would be super helpful if you could select all 200+ results in one click since selecting one-by-one is so tedious.

As another user commented, it is quite embarrassing to tell users that they should click on each item to select. Please add ASAP.

This is definitely needed! When we are looking for a suite of projects I can type in a portion of the name, but i cannot select all and have to click over a hundred project names. Please make this happen!!

This is also an issue when using multiple slicers.

e.g. slicer 1 - country = England
slicer 2 - order date = Jan2018
slicer 3 - select all order IDs that meet the above criterea

currently, select all would select every order ID, not the filtered selection based on the slicers 1 and 2.

There are some really basic functions available in Excel Pivot tables & filters that aren't available in BI? Please fix!

This is a constant ask from our users, it is embarrassing to have to tell them that they need to tick every single option and there is not a better solution.

We really need this functionality in Power BI. It's really annoying to select one by one.
