TLDR: When using nested bookmarks with a Bookmark Navigator, the navigators highlighted button does not reset when a higher-level bookmark is triggered, causing mismatches between what is displayed and what is selected.
Suggestion: allow bookmarks to also control the state of navigators, keeping them synchronized.
Currently, when using the Bookmark Navigator together with other bookmarks configured only for "Display" and "Selected visuals", there is a synchronization issue.
Practical example:
I have a top-level bookmark that shows/hides groups of visuals, including a bookmark navigator inside that group.
Inside this group, the internal bookmark navigator allows switching between Bookmark 1 and Bookmark 2.
If I use the internal navigator to switch to Bookmark 2, the corresponding button is highlighted correctly.
However, when I go back to the top-level bookmark, the visuals return to the Bookmark 1 scenario, but the navigator button still shows Bookmark 2 as active.
This creates confusion for the end user because the state displayed on the screen does not match the navigator’s highlighted button.
Improvement suggestion:
Add an option so that the Bookmark Navigator automatically synchronizes with the state saved in the bookmark, just like other selected visuals. This way, when a top-level bookmark is triggered, any internal bookmark navigators would also update their active button to match the bookmarks state, avoiding inconsistencies between the displayed scenario and the navigator. This improvement would bring much more clarity to navigation, especially in complex reports that use hierarchies of bookmarks and nested navigators.
