How to Prevent a Bookmark From Changing a Slicer

Hi all, is there a way to disable bookmarks from changing specific slicers/visuals?  I have date slicers set up and do not want these to change with the bookmark changes.

    No solutions here solved the issue.  After much digging, this is a limitation with Power BI - I have chosen to go another route to meet the user's requirements.

Hi selimovd, thanks for the response.  However this prevents the other visuals from changing to the desired state in the bookmark. 

I have 7 buttons for 7 different bookmarks, which show/hide different table visuals.  What I want to do is prevent those buttons from changing the START DATE and END DATE slicers each time I toggle the bookmarks, and allow the bookmark buttons to change the other visuals specified by the bookmarks.  Is this possible?

garynorcrossmmc ,

As I explained, when you disable "data", the slicer values (Start Date, End, date) will not be saved in the bookmark. The visibility of visuals will be changed accordingly to your setting.

 

If you need any help please let me know.
If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍
 
Best regards
Denis
