Bookmarks Effecting Filter Pane Visiblity

Recently I noticed in Power BI Desktop that Bookmarks impact the Filter Pane's Visibility. If the filter pane is visible when I create a bookmark, the bookmark will cause the filter pane to be visible when the Bookmark is selected. The same is true if I have the Filter pane hidden and create a bookmark, the Filter pane will be hidden when the bookmark is selected.  Bookmarks are also impacting what Filters are visible in the Filter pane. I do not see a way to change this in the Bookmark settings. Is this a bug or something done by design?

  • And also if you unselect the Filters from the View-tab, then the Filter-pane won't be visible when you publish it, regardless of the actual Filter-pane visibility setting.

    Hi dwelsh ,

    From the official document can see, when you create a bookmark, the following elements are saved with the bookmark:

    • The current page
    • Filters
    • Slicers, including slicer type (for example, dropdown or list) and slicer state
    • Visual selection state (such as cross-highlight filters)
    • Sort order
    • Drill location
    • Visibility of an object (by using the Selection pane)
    • The focus or spotlight mode of any visible object 

    It's not clearly described if the filter pane visiblity is included in the bookmark, but we can't assume it's a bug unless we can confirm it isn't included before but now included.
