Problem with Hidden Slicers

Hello,

I have a problem with Slicers, and do not know, what wennt wrong:

I build up a report, where I add different slicers. To hide them after selection, I build two bookmarks: One with all slicers shown, one with all slicers hidden.

Now, when I do my selection on slicers and press then the button to hide them, my selection is deleted, and all slicers are unselected. How can I avoid it? I just want, that the user can do his selection on slicers and then hide the slicers-bar, so that the report is looking fine and is not interrupted by the slicers bar.

 

Thank you for your help!

@Pfoerster ,
Check out this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6qT502Ao58

It is nice step by step tutorial on creating slicer panel.

Ah, had to deselect the "Data" in the options of the bookmark. Then it works 🙂 Perfect. Thank you for the video-link.

@Pfoerster , bookmark save the stage when you created it. it means if they created at a clear stage all filter will get clear when to show or hide. I do not think you can use the bookmark, the way you want. You can explore drill through for some of your needs -https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-drillthrough
