Bookmarks not saving visuals/data in visuals

[Timko92]

Hello,

I am running into a hurdle on a report involving bookmarks, and I am unable to determine if it is a bug of the bookmarks, or if the functionality I am looking for simply doesn't exist.

What I am trying to do:

1. I want to use the bookmarks to allow a user to go back and forth between completely different visuals/different data on the same tab. First I add a "default" bookmark to the current state of the tab. I then remove several visuals and replace them with new ones, and add another bookmark. Once I do that, going back to the "default" bookmark, I only see the updated visuals and not the visuals I had in the "default" book mark. Question is, is this functionality supported? 

2. Same idea as above, but I want the same visuals to contain different data. Again, this does not work.

Filters and sorting seems to work between bookmarks, but the changing of visuals and the data in those visuals does not. I am not sure if that is just the limitations of the bookmark, or if this is a bug I am running into.

-Thank you

Hi @Timko92,

Please refer to below example. If you want to replace the pie chart with a line chart in a new bookmark, you should add the line chart to report page, while hiding the pie chart rather than remove it.
