Simulate a Selected/Clicked Button Action where it is highlighted or something

Hi,

 

I recently got the bookmarks to work on QTR/MTH buttons and visuals for each of the 12 KPIs in a scorecard.

I want to simulate that the button is selected/clicked; is there a workaround where the button is highlighted or something, please?

 

Regards

I found the bookmark navigator to work nicely and simpler, it has a slicer interaction of buttons selected

Hi icassiem

You need to find the "State" formatting options on your buttons:

Then you need to create two copies of all of your buttons, and layer them on top of eachother.

The top button, you need to configure its Default state to look like you expect an unpressed button, and in addition, configure its "On Hover" and "On Press" to display what it looks like for those respectively.

 

Then you need to configure each of your bookmarks to hide this top button, when its respective bookmark is selected, so that the Bottom button for that category is now shown.

 

Now this bottom button, you need to configure its DEfault state to look like you would expect a button that is already selected.

 

Hope it makes sense!
