Issue with Bookmarks

Hi all,

I am using bookmarks in power bi to show/hide slicers on the page. There are two bookmarks on same report page:
1. Show months - when selected, "Choose month" slicer gets visible and "Choose quarter" slicer gets hidden
2. Show quarter - when selected, "Choose quarter" slicer gets visible and "Choose month" slicer gets hidden

I have a bar graph on the page, which should so value monthly or quarterly based on the bookmark and slicer selection. For example
if we select bookmark "Show quarter"
"Choose quarter slicer gets visible and we select Jan-mar 19,

In this case bar graph shows result for Jan-mar 19

Similarly if we select bookmark "Show month" then "Choose month" slicer gets visible and we should be able to select any month and bar graph should show the data for selected month.

Issue is, if we select Jan19,Feb19, Mar19, we see the data in bar graph. But if we select any month other than these then we see blank bar graph, no data. I think this is because of the selection Jan-Mar 19 in hidden slicer " choosen quarter". Intreaction between both slicers are turned off.

Please let me know how can i fix this issue, so that the bar graph can work with both slicer independently.
