'Selected Visuals' option not working on Bookmarks
- 9 months ago
Hi gracecharlton ,
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community Forum.
Please follow below steps to fix the issue.
1. Duplicate the page.
2. On the duplicate, Open Selection pane --> create two Groups: “Absolute” and “Relative”. Place your visuals into the appropriate group; set the visibility (eye icon) so only one group is visible per state.
3. Create two bookmarks, Bookmark: Absolute --> visibility: Absolute group On, Relative Off; set All visuals and turn OFF Data.
Bookmark: Relative --> visibility: Relative On, Absolute Off; All visuals, Data OFF.4. Wire buttons to these bookmarks and test: change the Location slicer, toggle Absolute/Relative, the slicer should remain intact and the layout should switch correctly.
5. If you must use Selected visuals for very granular toggles, include the slicer in the selection when updating each bookmark, and update both bookmarks after any slicer formatting or layout change.
Note: Bookmarks are snapshots of page state (layout/visibility + filter/slicer states). When Selected visuals is glitchy (post‑update), the bookmark may retain the first captured state and not properly apply subsequent changes especially around slicers.

Hi gracecharlton ,
Can you try below steps:
- Go to View → Bookmarks Pane
- Click on Your Bookmark
- Right-click on your bookmark → Update
- Click the three dots (...) next to the bookmark → Data
- Uncheck "Data" → Update bookmark
- Check "Data" again → Update bookmark
- Test the bookmark
If this doesnt work, try recreating the booksmarks and verify.
please give kudos or mark it as solution once confirmed.
