new visual and bookmarks
Is there any way to "shield" existing bookmarks from (inserting) new visuals into the Page. Meaning, instead of being automatically added as "visible" to old bookmarks, the new visual should be set as "invisible" to old bookmarks.
If you have several bookmarks already working, it is quite annoying to go one by one and updating them with "invisible" new item(s).
Am I missing something?
Hi chiccofff
Currently, bookmarks don’t apply to objects that are added afterward. However, a group of visuals counts as a single object. So if a bookmark is applied to an existing group and new visuals are added into that group, those new visuals will inherit the group’s visibility state.
A common workaround is to create a group using transparent shapes, apply the bookmark, and later drag any new visuals into that group through the Selection pane so they follow the same visibility.Hello chiccofff ,
I agree with danextian , I would add that depends on your case , i would rather use field parameter instead of bookmarks in scenarios that field parameters would work which is switching between measures or fields.
if you're not aware of field parameters, you could check them out https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/power-bi-field-parameters
