Sorting visuals

I have problems with sorting 

I'm using bookmarks to make visible various visuals via hyperlink buttons  

I sorted visuals by values but when I used abovementioned buttons lost all sorting logic.

can anyone advise how it can be solved? 

 

Here I want to present line chart  by values from high to low  and sorting visual by CY values 

Sorted by Current Year valuesSorted by Current Year valuesVisual  lost sorting logic due to hyperlink button usageVisual lost sorting logic due to hyperlink button usage

Hi @SabaM,

 

I think this issue more related to bookmark feature. It seems like you haven't update success for the stored bookmark contents.

If you click on bookmark, it will restore that contents to style when you create the bookmark.(include filler effect, sorting effect...)

 

Please refer to below link to know more about this feature and limitations:

Use bookmarks to share insights and build stories in Power BI (Preview)

Limitations and considerations

In this preview release of the bookmarks, there are a few limitations and considerations to keep in mind.

  • Custom visuals do not work with bookmarking if they are the source of the filter. If you're using custom visuals to filter elements on a page (for example, the chiclet slicer) and return to that page using a bookmark, the page may be filtered but the custom visual won't be updated to show how the page is being filtered.
  • Cross-highlighting status for a report pane is not saved when you create a bookmark.
  • If you add a visual on a report page after creating a bookmark, the visual will be displayed in its default state. This also means that if you introduce a slicer into a page where you previously created bookmarks, the slicer will behave in its default state.
  • Moving around visuals after a bookmark has been created will be reflected in the bookmark.
  • You must have at least one bookmark in your report, when you publish it to the Power BI service, in order for bookmarks to be available in the service. This is a requirement for each report you publish.
  • Since bookmarks are currently a Preview feature, they're not yet available in Power BI Desktop for Report Server.

 

For your scenario, please update stored bookmark contents or remove to rebuild a new one with new contents you wanted.

 

Regards.
