Responsive slicers in Power BI refer to the feature that allows slicers to automatically adjust their layout and appearance based on the available space in a report or dashboard. Slicers are visual controls that provide an interactive way for users to filter data in a report. They allow users to choose specific values from a field and filter the data displayed in other visuals accordingly.

Here’s how responsive slicers work in Power BI :

Automatic Layout Adjustment : When you add slicers to a report, Power BI automatically arranges them in an optimized layout based on the available space. If the report is viewed on a smaller screen or in a narrow column, responsive slicers will adjust their size and layout accordingly to fit the space without overlapping or becoming truncated.

Collapse and Expand : When the available space is limited, responsive slicers may collapse to conserve space. This means the slicers may appear as small icons or buttons that can be expanded when clicked to reveal the full set of filter options.

Orientation Adaptation : Slicers can be oriented vertically or horizontally based on the available space. When there is more width available, slicers might be placed horizontally to display more options at once. On the other hand, when there is limited width, slicers may stack vertically to fit within the available space.

Touch-Optimized : Responsive slicers are designed to be touch-friendly, making it easier for users on touch-enabled devices like tablets or smartphones to interact with the filters.
