We can hide the Inforiver Super Filter visual and still perform Filter Context function by using either Power BI Filters or Power BI Slicers. This is very useful especially when we don't want to see the Inforiver Super Filter when presenting our reports and just want to show either the Power BI Slicer or Filter.
You can learn how to configure Filter Context using Super Filter here --> Filter Context vs Inforiver Super Filter
Let us understand with can example.
1) Say we have report like below wherein we have already configured Inforiver Super Filter and have added Filter Context like shown below:
2) Now we can hide this Super Filter by first selecting the Super Filter visual and then going to Visualizations pane -> Format your visual -> search 'Context' in search tab -> Display Settings -> Appearance -> enable 'Show Context Settings' option:
In Context Settings -> we can enable Hide Visual:
3) We can now see that our Super Filter visual is hidden:
4) Finally, we can insert either a Power BI slicer or Power BI Filter visual with the same measure we had used for the Super Filter. So, in our case we will use a Year measure for our Power BI Slicer since our Super Filter was also based on Year measure:
6) We can now see that our Filter Context works even with the Power BI Slicer despite our Super Filter visual being hidden:
