Detach Slicer

This function is used to remove slicer interactions on other slides. If you are using the same slicer over multiple slides, and you want to remove the slicer interactions on slides other than the one you're currently on, you can do so quickly using this function. This way, you don't need to go to each separate slide and manually remove the interactions.

Detach Slicer Interactions and Hide
