Using a single shape or button instead of multiple ones for "Commercial", "Sales", etc.

Relying on bookmarks to manage view changes.

Unchecking the "Data" option in the bookmark settings, so that only visual state (like visibility of shapes or pages) is affected, and not the filters or slicers.

Thanks,

Hi @RajK2,

If you are using bookmarks, that will need to be setup for each one since the bookmarkl options are based on filter selection and objects hidden or visible, so when you add a new object, chart, and so on you need to set it up based on the specific bookmark.

One option to overcome this is to group the visual you want to hide and show and then hide the group and not each individual object, that way if you add a new object to the group it will automatically be updated the bookmark.

I've 50+ bookmark if i add one object it will show all 50+ bookmark then i will go and hide 49 bookmark, update. 1 bookmark open for this object.

lengthly process to hide 49 boomark and go, update it means the rest of pages which not useful object, do we have any other solution.

Hi @RajK2 ,

Not sure why you are using so many bookmarks, but I can tell you that the use of bookmarks should be your last resort.

In my experience the only option to use bookmarks is when you want to show / hide visuals.

Currently with field parameters, visuals calculations, and the new cards visuals that allow the use of svg and images, you can have a preety large option to make your visual be dynamic.

I would advise you to recheck the report because again in my opinion it's very difficult to maintain the bookmarks even more it's difficult to understand how a bookmark is acting upon you report page because there is no direct way to see what are the visuals and filtering process that you have, so when updating them you can break them really fast.

ok, what is best practice instead of using bookmark

I don't want to create so many pages, just one page click 

finance - 3 tables show

commerical - 4 tabels show

etc...

please suggest any other option instead of bookmark

Hi @RajK2 ,

This depends on how your model is setup and what you want to show or not, if you are refering about change the data inside the tables you can use field parameters that will allow to make the change between the different fields and measures you are using.

If it's a question about the calculation you can make use of calculation groups that will allow to reuse the calculations in different metrics.

can you give an example of what you want to achieve and how you model is setup?

Basically we're creating landing page with linkage of dashboards

1. Finance 2. realestate 3. commerical and etc...

we've major commerical, realestate, finance separately so we don't want create each pages 50+

just one page if we click on the bookmark (finance) or something like that it will show list of shape with linkage. you can click next one. it will show list shape or table.

any youtube sample or if you have created sample pbix file for my reference. thanks

Hi @RajK2 ,

When you refer a linkage and show a list of shapes is it the dashboards you already have in Power BI Report like a view of all the reports you have in the service?
