Button Background Colour needs to change based on the Selection of the Button

Hi,

      I have a report page where there are 5 buttons and each button is linked to a Bookmark and shows different visuals based on the selected button.

Issue is that all the buttons look the same and there is no way to identify which button is selected. My requirment is that the current selected button should have a different background colour for the button so that users can see that its the selected one.

 

Current Button View:

Is there a direct way to do this or should i use DAX in the Background option function using DAX to change the colour when the button is selected.
