Exclude a slicer _but_ include a button in a bookmark

I have a bookmark to apply a filter to two graphs to show Top N for a category. I do not want the bookmark to apply to any page slicers, so I have used this method of choosing 'selected visuals' for the bookmark to achieve this. I also want to use two buttons layered one on top of the other to show that the filter is active:

Normally, I would set up the bookmarks so that when the filter is active the highlighted button is un-hidden; however, I can't do this with the 'selected visuals' option because it is impossible to 'select' a hidden object. If I select the buttons and the charts, hide one button, and create the bookmark then it does not include the state of the hidden button. If I then create a second bookmark with the filter removed and the other button hidden, swapping back to the first bookmark results in neither button being hidden. Is there a way around this?

    Hi Anonymous 

    You can set which visual shouble be displayed or hidden, then set the page as a bookmark.

    You can refer to the following link to know about the function.

      This does not help:

      If I choose 'selected visuals', and then select a button, and change its visibility to hidden, and then update the bookmark, the button's state is not saved because (by hiding it) I have necessarily de-selected it, if you see what I mean. You can't select a hidden object.
