    It would be ideal to change the colour of the slicer header, to show that the slicer is being actively applied in the report.

    Check out the new Filter Pane experience. It does this nicely, and now that you can sort and rename cards, it's much easier to work with.

    Of course some slicers (such as the Time Brush, or Chiclets) but you should need far less of these if using the Filter Pane in conjunction.

    I share dashboards with colleagues and sometimes get queries regarding the figures shown within them. This is generally because the user has filtered the data with a Slicer and is unaware/has forgotten having done so. It would be very helpful if Slicers could change colour or something like that when they're being used so it would be more obvious that a filter has been applied.
