Keep Visual selection by layers and visuals

[Anonymous]

Hi All!

My problem is the same as others, with the lose of selection of visuals if they gona be hiden.

...but i'm gona try to explain it...

I have a "one pager" view and i created a 5 layer presentation, which layers can be changed by bookmarks.

Also there are more slicers on the page which are working fine, because the data option by the bookmarks is unchecked.

On every layer are other visuals and if you select a point or a data on a visual it changes all not hiden visuals fine...

But as soon as you choose an another bookmark this selection is lost. 

This would be the question, that is there any option or solution to keep the current selection of the bookmarked visual when it will be hiden? Or is there a method to change the activated slicer elements by selection of a visual?

...because if the selection of a visual could be validated to the slicers on the page, my problem would be solved... I think... 😄

Thank You in advance!

Hello @Anonymous,

Instead of selecting data points in visuals, convert them into slicers or filter-based interactions. You can also try using a measure to capture selection:

SelectedValueMeasure = 
SELECTEDVALUE(YourTable[YourColumn], "No Selection")

Dear Sahir! 

Thank you for your idea!

How you mean to "convert them into slicers or filter-based interactions"? You mean to make for every visual selection point a filtered slicer and move it on the selection area? The visual is interactive and it changes...

Also I have already more than 10 slicers (its a big DB) on the page and 5 layer of different visuals.

It could be more than 1000 different selection or filtering method... For this all specify different measures? It seams to me unimaginable... 

Ok anyway it is not an indispensable problem...

Thank you!

I will try it by smaller DBs! High Five!
