  [| "Pant" as Product, "Blue" as Color |]
  [| "Cap",             "Red"           |]
  [| "T-shirt",         "White"         |]

T.slice = sliceDashboard(T.Product) by t

    T.Product
    T.Color

The sliceDashboard function does several things:

• It introduces a slice selector drop-down in the upper-right corner of the dashboard.
• It creates a table named Slices along with slice its primary dimension.

Slicing happens at the row level for tile inputs. This behavior is controlled via the slices: tile option.
