Bookmark vs Filter

Is there a way to make sure that the filters I have in a bookmark interacts with another filter on the page ?

 

I Have different bookmarks based on Permits and the status of those Permits for example, Permits that are overdue, permits that are valid, permits that aren't valid anymore etc etc.

 

I have buttons in place with a bookmark based on a filter set to the Permit status

 

However I can use filters (that are not part of the bookmark) in order to specifically filter on a project but when I use them it cleares the filter in my bookmark.
So when I set the status on Valid Permit (bookmark) and then use my filter to Project A, the visual just shows Project A but ignores the filter set in my bookmark and vice versa

 

How can I change that ? I've already tried boxing and unboxing the Data value in the bookmark pane

@RonaldvdH , Do not get it completely. But you can opt-out of data option.

@amitchandak ive tried that very option but when I uncheck the Data box on a Bookmark the button doesn't seem to do anything anymore.
Lets get something clear because if my question isn't clear then I can't expect you to give me the right answer obviously 🙂 🙂

 

My bookmark buttons works perfectly when I only use them because each bookmark has a filter based on a status.

That part works fine

 

Then .... i have a few other filters (not in the bookmark) so that I can filter on a specific project or subproject but that filter overrules the Bookmark filter and vice versa.

 

If it's not clear please ask questions which I can answer and again thank you for your time and input

@amitchandak maybe this is one of those problems you can't figure out. I'm not sure if there is a solution to this
