Advocate IIISync slicers with bookmarks
Slicers sync across pages, not bookmarks. That being said, it is possible that perhaps if you turn on selection controls that you may be able to achieve your desired result. My thinking is that perhaps you can save your bookmark without cross filters and then perhaps your synchronized slicers might work and not get their values removed by the bookmark.
Hello !
I may have a solution in order to sync slicers across bookmarks.
Actually, I've made a lot of trials.
Sorry by advance if my translation is not correct cause I do not use the english version of PBI so I just translate word-for-word of French.
So, when you are on your page, open the Bookmarks tab on your screen.
Right clik on your first bookmark :
- Data must be selected
- View must be selected
- Actual page must be selected
- Unchek All visuals
- And chek Selected visual
But do not move, it's not finish.
Press CTRL+A (all of your visuals are selected) and deselect just what you want to be Sync, so deselect your filters. Everything else have to be selected.
Then, right clik on your Bookmark and "Update".
Do the same on all of your bookmarks. Then, everything should be fixed.
Hopefully that answers your question.
Have a nice day !
Helper IVHi, This is working fine for me except that i am not able to see the slicer on the page(obviously because I am updating the bookmark with selected visual.) but i want to see the slicer as well but with the selection i made in the parent page. how to achieve this?
requirement:
1. I have 3 date slicers with 3 bookmarks in page1.
2. I need this arrangement(three buttons and depends on selection the date slicers appear.) on all my pages
3. the date slicers have to be in sync in all the pages(i.e. if i select 6/7/2021 in page 1 other pages also must be filtered with the same date and the slicer has to show me tht date.)
but the issue i am facing is, whenever I click on the button in other pages, the date slicer is updating as per bookmark unlike the slicer in the other page.
if i uncheck the data in the bookmark, the page is not filtered as per selected date.
if i select selected visuals the functionality is working fine i.e. the page is filtering as per my slicer selction in page1 but i am unable to see the slicer.
can someone help me please
