apply slicer selections to visuals non-automatically

I am working with a Power BI report using Direct Query. In some cases,  applying slicer selections can lead to slow query performance. I do not want my visuals to apply slicer selection automatically. First I want to select several slicers and then have a button which will make visuals to apply the slicer selections. Currently I have done a bookmark "apply filter" but it does not work properly.

Hi @etsot ,

 

You want some specific visuals that aren't affected by slicer selection, right? Then learn about interaction in a report, which allows you to exclude slicers from filtering specific visuals.

Change how visuals interact in a report - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
