    laciodrom_80,

     

    It just occurred to me that there might be a workaround. What about setting the button background to 100% for all bookmarks and then have colored rectangles behind buttons that change visibility according to the bookmarks...could this reproduce a highlighted button effect?

Hi laciodrom_80,

 

You are on the right track.

I use buttons for e.g. navigation between pages and need to highlight the last clicked button so the user knows what page they are on.

I do this by disabling the fill option in the button formatting and enabling the background option in the bookmark the button navigates to. Note, this approach doens't quite work if the bookmarks are used to change the visibility of visualizations on the same page and you want the filters to carry between bookmarks (atleast I haven't gotten it to function properly, could work though.)

No backgroundHighlighted buttonWhat it looks like
