Bookmark Navigator - wrong button state after reopening report in PBI Service

I have several reports (published to Power BI Service) in which I'm using bookmark navigator panels. Unfortunatelly it seems that there is a bug resulting in a wrong button being highlighted after re-opening report.

 

When a user closes and then re-enters the same report - all the visuals and slicers should be in the same state as last time when the user closed report. It works for all th visuals and slicer, but bookmark navigator resets and is showing wrong state (not corresponding with the state of visuals/slicers).

 

Below are the examples

 

State of the report when closing (both chart and corresponding button show Price per Item)

Report state when closing reportReport state when closing report

 

State of the report after re-opening: (chart still showing 'Price per Item', but highlighted button is 'Price per KG')

It causes a lot of confusion for the users. Can this be fixed ?

Hi @fat_cat 

So you mean you open this report and the data in it is correct, but the buttons don't match, right? Are all users having the same problem? Can you describe in detail the steps you took to create the button?

Hi @v-yetao1-msft 


Yes, exactly- data are correct, but the state of the buttons don't match with the actual data being shown. The issue appears after re-opening previously used report. Wrong selection status is being displayed until you click any button on this bookmark navigator (then behavior returns to normal, but the issue re-appears next time you re-open the report).

 

The problem applies to buttons created as a 'Bookmark Navigator' (Insert > Buttons > Navigator > Bookmark Navigator). The buttons are triggering selected bookmarks. Those bookmarks actions is simply to change several selections in the hidden slicers (some of those slicers are based on Field Parameters).

 

Please let me know if more details are needed.

Some great examples, and this is still a huge issue for us. The filter state is remembered, the bookmark state is not. Very annoying.
