I recently developed the Slicer Button custom visual that allows one to use a card as a filter (more specifically as a "slicer"). Using a bookmark has some drawbacks and this custom visual allows a card to be used more similarly to a slicer visual.

I'm happy to clarify anything that's unclear regarding the visual. I also have a blog post on the topic titled Turn your cards into slicers with the Slicer Button custom visual.
If you found this post useful, it's helpful to me if you give it a thumbs up and accept it as a solution!
Best,

Use a list slicer set to a General | Orientation of Horizontal and an Items | Outline

You may also try adding value to the Matrix visual.
Please see this feature idea here that would make this possible:
