# Adding a Slicer
{% hint style="info" %}
Check out the walk-through given below on how to add a slicer.
{% endhint %}
The users can add a further dimension to the created view using the ***Slicer*** option.
* Drag and drop one dimension and one measure to the ***Dimensions/ Measures*** column using the Design tab.
* Drag and drop another dimension to the ***Slicer*** section (E.g., Team is used as a slicer over here).
* The slices get displayed in the created view based on the second-dimension value via a ***Mixed chart*** (by default).
* Order the displayed data sorting it by specific ***limit*** and ***order***. You can also select a ***Style*** to display the data differently.
* The displayed view gets modified accordingly and gets sliced based on the set order and limit. E.g., The below-given image displays 9 records of Skill-wise sum of experience for various teams in the Descending order.
{% hint style="info" %}
*Please Note:*
* *The Slicer supports the selection of only one dimension and one measure in the **Dimensions/Measures** space. Another dimension should be added to the ‘**Slicer’** space**.***
* *The **Manual Sort** order option does not get supported by the **Slicer** functionality.*

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.bdb.ai/bdb-documentation/data-visualization/self-service/design/adding-a-slicer.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
