Single Button to clycle through Bookmarks
So I have already used Bookmarks extensively in my reports in the past, but today I face a problem for which the only solution I can think of is very inelegant. I have a Bookmark navigator set up, but instead of a selection grid (with 5 different buttons) i need to create a single button which when clicked changes to the next bookmark, when clicked again goes to the nest, and so on and so forth until the first Bookmark is then shown again, in a loop. What I can think of: Insert 5 different buttons and selectively edit my bookmarks to show only one of the five buttons at a time, with the action to go the next Bookmark. Is there a way to achieve this without having to go through all of my bookmarks and remaking them, and also without inserting 5 buttons to my report?

I don't believe it's possible because objects that allow actions, only have one action.
That is quite demoralizing 😞
What is the purpose of the cycling and why does the navigator option not work?
I'm just trying to understand the use case as there may be another, more elegant, workaround.
It simply takes too much space
Then it really depends on your report design but either 5 very small buttons, dots, icon of some kind with a bookmark each, or the more time consuming option of 5, each that only shows on the relative page.
Another option I quite like to use is a pop-up/drop down/slide out hidden section. You could have your navigation in there, but it doesn't simplify anything, just looks quite elegant if done well.
