Hi,   I know it is possible to link an image to a bookmark, but is there anything else that we can use to link to a bookmark?   For example, I want to use a text box to link to a bookmark but it ...

    Hi afk.

     

    Another way is to link it to an image or shape and then on the Title of that image write your text then reduce the size of the visual until you only see the title. the bookmark will work because title is part of the visual.

Hi datadog,

 

You need to go the format image options and select the Action option then Bookmark and select the one you need. By default this option is off.

MFelix:  Thank you so much for your quick reply and I aplogize for not being clear but it is hard to explain when I am still figuring things out.

What I am really trying to do is to link my image to the bookmark so that when I click on the image it will toogle between two pages.  What I have read is that you need to link the image to the bookmark but I don't seem to have the ability to turn on the Link Function like the Action function.  From what I have found this Link Function should be right under the "Action" function but for some reason my BI Desktop verison doesn't have it and I am not sure how to find this Link function so that I can make this work in my report.  I have enclosed a picture showing that I don't have the Link funtion.

 

Thank you for your help,

    Hi datadog,

     

    This image is from your file? What version of PBI do you have?

      The version is: 2.59.5135.421 64bit (June 2018)  I was thinking that too so I updated my free PBIDesktop

        I have the same issue. Is the link option available for PBI version 2.59? If so could someone provide some direction on how to link a page to a visual? Thanks in advance!
