Bookmarks options
Here is an article that has a lot about how they used bookmarking:
There are also lots of videos on it:

In short though, Data is going to preserve slicer and filter selections.
Display will preserve spotlighting and whether or not visuals are visible or not
Page will take the user to the specified page that is visible at the time of the bookmark
It's a lot of trial and error to get the specific effects that you want. For example, I have never had a reason to not check Page. But, you might want to uncheck Data if you want to spotlight and hide certain visuals but want the user's slicer and filter selections to be preserved when you do so.
Hi Greg_Deckler,
I'm just tagging onto the end of this as it's related to what I'm trying to do.
I have one page with 2 charts on it. I want to set up a small button/icon next to each chart that will allow me to show the data in a different chart type. I've added some images to illustrate what I'm looking to do:
This would be my default view. If I click on the icon to the top right of the stacked bar chart I want it to change to a 100% stacked and leave the line chart intact, like this:
There's also an icon at the top right of the line chart that I would like to use to amend it. So in the following image I've swapped around both charts:
I wonder if there's any combination of bookmark options I could use to achieve this? Data would be deselected, but if I deselected Current Page and All Visuals, would that work? What happens when you deselect All Visuals?
Any suggestions?
