Selection/Bookmark/Filter resets hierarchy slicer selection problem

I have a hierarchy slicer that the user drills down to the data that they would like to see.
I also have 5 buttons linked to five bookmarks. Based on which button you pick table visuals are hidden/shown.
The problem is the buttons linked to bookmarks reset the hierarchy slicer which is needed to filter the information.
Is there a way to keep all of this on one page and have the hierarchy slicer data keep its selection?

Hey @lotussutol ,

 

make sure that the Data property of the bookmarks is not selected when you hide/unhide the visual. This will prevent that the hierarchy slicer will be reset.

You can arrange all 5 table visuals on one page, then apply the bookmark actions, as soon as the bookmarks work as expected, make sure that the table visuals are properly overlaid.

 

The final step needs some patience, I tend to use the General formatting options to move the visuals pixel-wise.

 

This describes how to use bookmarks and there is also a small mention of the Data property: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-bookmarks

 

Hopefully, this provides the ideas you need to tackle your challenge.

 

Regards,

Tom
