Bookmark specific content (text annotation)?

[tslyonsnj]

I am trying to use Bookmarks to tell a story of the first five years in the development of my rugby club.

The data documents growth in the number of players and maturation in caliber of opposition, so I plan to have five bookmarks with the data filtered for each of the five years in succession.  My problem is that I've not been able to find a way to have year-specific comments in each of the five bookmarks, located in a spot set aside for commentary in the viz.  I've discovered that inserting a standard text box does not support bookmark-specific comments, but I was hoping that I might be able to exploit filter context in some way to "call" the appropriate year's text by associating the desired text fields with years via relationships 

Am I on the right track, here, or tilting at windmills?  Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi @tslyonsnj ,

Have you tried using Drill through? 

With drill through in Power BI reports, you can create a page in your report that focuses on a specific entity such as a supplier, customer, or manufacturer. When your report readers use drill through, they right-click a data point in other report pages, and drill through to the focused page to get details that are filtered to that context. You can also create a button that drills through to details when they click it.

Best regards

You could just make a measure that holds your text and use a card vidual instead.  You can concatenate text with measures that use context like this.

TextMeasure = "The year was " & MAX(Date[Year]) & ".  The result was " & [AnotherMeasure] & "."

You could also try out the Smart Narratives visual.
