Slicers inside panel and outside panel

I've created a slicer panel (with several slicers) and 1 slicer (Product Name) that is not located in the panel. I created bookmarks to show the slicers (arrow button), clear the slicers (button) and hide slicer panel (button) which all work fine. When I click the arrow button to show the slicer panel the Product Name slicer resets to the original value when the bookmark was created. I don't want the Product Name slicer to update when I click the arrow button (to show the slicers) or any of the slicers inside the panel. I've tried using the Selected Visuals option in the dashboar Can anyone provide some guidance?

I know bookmarks can be very frustrating sometimes.  Once you have set your Show_Slicer_Panel bookmark to 'Selected Visual'

You have to then actually select just the visuals in the selection list you want the bookmark to interact with by ctrl + clicking them.  This is where you want to make sure and NOT select your Product Name slicer.   Then click the '...' on the bookmark and hit update.
