    Hi Anonymous,

     

    Thanks for your replay. I created all visuals first and then create a bookmark for each state. On my reasarch I have found that a button can have only one state so to solve this issue, I create 4 more buttons (8 buttons in total) and associated actions to each one.

     

    It works fine now.

     

    Thank you!

Hi AndreiK15,

How did you create these bookmarks and saving these filters? Create a bookmark with some filters and add new visual and filters to saving in another bookmark?

IF that is the case, I'd like to suggest you take a look at the limits of the bookmark feature:

Create bookmarks in Power BI Desktop to share insights and build stories#limitations-and-considerations 

If you add a visual on a report page after creating a bookmark, the visual is displayed in its default state. That is, if you introduce a slicer into a page where you previously created bookmarks, the slicer behaves in its default state.

I'd like to suggest you add all visuals first, then you can manually change each visual filter and interaction to saving to different bookmarks.

Regards,

Xiaoxin Sheng
