Bookmark navigator selection highlight changes after sorting tables

I have bookmark navigation to change the visuals that are displayed - one table corresponds to one bookmark and then there is a base table to filter etc (visible and effective for both bookmarks, That's why i have bookmarks instead of pages. Everything works like it should until user sorts one of the tables. Then the navigator "forgets" what bookmark was selected.

 

I made a small sample of my usecase:

When I have "Type" bookmark selected and sort the table then navigation bar higlights "Date" but I am still under "Type" bookmark.

Hi @agnes_ee ,

 

Bookmarks, are snapshots of your visualizations at one point, you can select to have the data connected to it and so you are abble to keep the bookmark visual part the same but the data change, however it's a visual option so in this case when you have a table sort by a column and make a bookmark if you select another sorting then that is not the same bookmark that is why you are "loosing" the bookmark.

Thank you for your answer. Yes, I was thinking the same at first but as you see the bookmark itselt stays the same: the "type" table is visible but navigator indicates "date" which is not the real state of the bookmark. Then none of the selections in navigator should be highlighted. Currently the navigator indicates the situation in which the "type" table should be invisible and "date" table visible - which is not true. 

Hi @agnes_ee ,

 

On my test everything was working properly. Can you please share a mockup data or sample of your PBIX file. You can use a onedrive, google drive, we transfer or similar link to upload your files.

If the information is sensitive please share it trough private message.
