Hi Anonymous 

"Luckily" there is an "Update" button on the bookmark view.
What I do:


1. I add a visual filter to the same visual. Then I select this visual (and of course the visuals on which were captured by the existing bookmark) and press on "Update". The button "Selected visuals" is still selected.
2. I remove the visual filter again. I do the same again.

 

Based on my understanding, you have two bookmarks, then you need many visuals on the two bookmarks,

on bookmark1, visuals have visual level filters, on bookmark2, visuals have no visual level filters.

 

Is my understanding correct?

Would you like some function which can automatically do steps above?

 

Best Regards

Maggie

    Hi Maggie,

    Thanks for your answer.

    Your understanding is correct. The problems lies not so much in the fact that this is impossible, but more "how do I achieve this using the UPDATE button rather than creating complete new bookmarks".

     

     I manage to do these steps when I create completely new bookmarks. My question is thus more "how can I make the bookmark update button to work?"

     

    Thanks in advance.

      If you want to update a bookmark first you need to do the selection, apply filter condition and then you need to select a bookmark, click on "update". 

       

      It doesn't work if you first click on update and then apply filter or selection.
