I just hate this kind of limitations. Actually, working with dashboards is becoming terrible. It changes the dimension that I configure, even when in configurations the option of Power BI change is not setted. I'm trying a lot of ways to build reports with specific filters settings, but it´s impossible. If I save the bookmark to fix in one report, and save again to pin to another report, it overwrite, and both reports look the same. Affff. I´ve tryed to configure buttons to send to the bookmarks or for pages, e it doesn't work in a service dashboard. I'll need to multiply the reports for each set of filters. It´s umbealiveble.
And it´s not the end, I'll need to divide the report in three to avoid that they change the dimensions. So, you can imagine how many different reports I´ll need to build just because a simple button, ou because this kind of overwrite.
I have just spent time working on my buttons functionality only for this to not work in dashboards, really fustrating.
FUNCTIONALITY - CONFUSING ?
I could accept that dashboard tiles are intended to be fully non-interactive.
However, they do exhibit considerable interactivity e.g.
- slicers
- clicking on graph elements
The current offering then is a bit confused. Why not also Buttons ? I created buttons to reset all my slicers to certain configurations, just the sort of thing that might be required to complement active slicers in a tile.
DOCUMENTATION - INCONSISTENT ?
At web page https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-buttons it indicates that :
"You can add buttons to reports in Power BI Desktop, and share or publish those reports to the Power BI service to create dashboards that provide an app-like behavior for users."
There is no mention in this article that buttons may not work as expected in tiles.
I'm lost and hoping to be put back on the right tracks.
Well if you mean that the "output" is only the numbers and graphs but not the buttons, then maybe this is an answer that can be worked with. But really, the documentation notes do not make this at all clear, quite the opposite.
