Bookmarks with selected visuals option and Selection Pane

In my reports I make an extensive use of bookmarks, particularly bookmarks with the "selected visuals" option.

 

When creating a bookmark, I open the SELECTION pane and select all of the visuals/objects I want being affected by the bookmark (multiple selection by CTRL key); the selected visuals can be easily identified by their darker background in the SELECTION pane; then I check the "selected visuals" option and update the bookmark.

 

However, if I want to modify the list of affected visuals (or change their visible/hidden status), when I select a specific bookmark in the BOOKMARK tab, no dark background appears in the SELECTION tab.

 

This behaviour makes it difficult to keep record of which visuals are associated with specific bookmarks; it also makes maintenance quite hard. There should be a way to know which visuals are associated with a bookmark.

    Hi sdrumovic ,

     

    A good idea.

    I think solving this problem requires adding filter-like features to the selection pane, such as filtering out all visuals whose visibility is hidden. Obviously there is no similar feature on the desktop at the moment, and you can summit it here. It is a place for customers provide feedback about Microsoft products . What’s more, if a feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.

     

    Best Regards,
