Buttons assigned to bookmarks not working

[julesdude]

Hi,

I have 4 visualisation charts overlaid on top of each other and 4 buttons underneath with names to allow the user to click on them to reveal a specific chart from the pile. I have done everything correct and followed all instructions from where I can find it online. I have created 4 bookmarks each named corresponding to the chart they reveal. I have hidden the correct corresponding charts in the selection pane then clicked to update the bookmark with the correpsonding name to save the state of the appearance. For the buttons - I have selected each button in the Selection pane, gone into the Format pane, clicked Action > Type = Bookmark, and Bookmark = the name of the bookmark.

Eventhough selecting the Bookmark state from the Bookmarks pane brings the chart I desire to the top, the buttons themselves don't trigger the bookmark and I can't understand why. 

What am I doing wrong?

I had a similar issue where my buttons connected to my bookmarks would not work, even with ctrl+click. (Bookmarks were behaving as expected if I clicked on them from the Bookmarks pane.)

I discovered the reason my buttons were unresponsive is because I was using the "Title" property (in General section of the Format pane) to set my button text. For some reason, the Title part of a button is not selectable, it seems. Once I changed all my button labels to use the Text propery (in Button>Style section of the Format pane), the buttons started working as expected.

Hi, @julesdude ;

If you use a button + bookmark jump in desktop you need Ctrl+ click； but if you pubilc to service. Just click; And the following link is consistent;

And so....I figured it out by hovering my mouse over the button - a popup explains use CTRL and click here to follow link. I knew it was something simple I was missing!

Are all such button actions activated in the Desktop of the report by having to press CTRL and click? Is this the same when interacting with a report in the Service?
