custom button

[UK_User123456]

Hi All,

I created a custom button to link as a bookmark to 3 graphs that have been overlapped, which worked out correctly, but for some reason when I create a new graph that is seperate to the overlapping graphs, the created button is also linked to this, I have tried to uncheck the filter for the new graph but this doesnt work.....

Any ideas?

TIA

Hi,

Have you updated the bookmark after you created the 4th graph?

[UK_User123456]

Hi @Gregory_Felton , many thanks for your response, I didnt know I had to update the bookmarks, is that for each bookmark that I have for each of the graphs apart from the 4th?

[Gordonlilj]

Yeah, you will need to update all bookmarks where the new graph should not be used.

It's one of the limitations and considerations of bookmarks

[UK_User123456]

Ok thats fine, but even after I update its still changing the 4th graph when I dont want it too, are you able to let me know how to fix it? Im new to Power BI.

[Gordonlilj]

Sure, but you would need to explain further what exactly your bookmarks should achieve.

Are you hiding the graphs until the button is pressed for example

[UK_User123456]

Yes you are correct, I am hiding the graphs until the button is pressed (I have 3 buttons one for each graph), but the 4th graph should not change when the button(s) are pressed.

[Gordonlilj]

When you say change, what exactly should not change?

Is the data on the 4th graph filtered when you press a button?

Also just to make sure, you don't have the possibility to share the pbix as it would make it very easy to give the correct solution if i could see the report myself

[UK_User123456]

Unfortunately I cannot share the pbix. 

I have 3 graphs linked to 3 buttons, the buttons work correctly when clicking on them, they show the correct graph, its just when I create a brand new graph, I dont want it to be linked to any of the buttons. The 4th graph should just be independant.

I can try and create a dummy pbix for reference.

A dummy report would be great,

If understand right the 4th graph should not be visible when a button is pressed, is this correct?

Sorry for all the question. English is not my first language so i'm just making sure i understand the issue correctly

Hi @Gordonlilj - I have just managed to figure out the reason why it was populating the 4th graph, when  creating the links I had the graph selected in the selection pane when I shouldnt have, and now the issue is sorted.

Thanks for your help.
