    Great video! I've been using this technique for awhile now and I've found it's helpful to group your visuals to easily identify them when creating bookmarks. Simply select your visuals from the selection pane and right click them, select group and give it a name. I see that you did the same thing with "slicer panel" but it might be worth mentioning this technique.

    I've used that in a report to improve performance and change the aggregation of the data by different dimensions instead of having a cartesian product dimension.
    Result: it was 10 TIMES fastest.
    Great video, Adam, as always

      If you only do 1 swap button you can do it without that option, but as soon as you add more buttons and navigation options you'll have to use selected visuals to avoid constantly refreshing the page

    Been using this for a while but as others said it can be high maintenance. Would be nice if such functionalities came out of the box. Perhaps a virtual container box that let's you add multiple visuals to a container and switch between them easily. In addition to your video I would advice to group the selection layers btw, this allows for easier editing.

    While I've been using bookmarks in testing, I haven't really rolled it out live yet, I've only really unticked the data option so I'd love it if you done a video on all the bookmark functionality. The selected visuals is a game changer, I can't believe I haven't used it... Definitely #masterbookmarks

    I use book marks often. I did not know you could do just a few visuals instead of the whole page. That was a nice trick to know. My pet peeve is when I have a book mark just the way I want it, then I add a visual somewhere else and it messes up my bookmark by showing up. I'm hoping this fixes that problem as well.

    #masterbookmarks I actually started doing this exact thing just a few months... created: Navigation Menu, Menu Tree, Filter Display toggles, Visual toggles (Charts vs Matrix) and Quick Granularity buttons... word of advice, use groups and naming conventions that make it easier to locate when linking to an Action... Selections multi-layered groups, Bookmarks only single layered so can get messy

    Sorry if this is a silly question: In the video there is a transition effect between the bookmarks. The angled line with the circle in the middle that slides across to show the new visual. Is this transition effect doable in Power BI? Or was this added to the video in post-production for emphasis?

In your video you show us that you use something like window handle to swith from one visual to another one. How can I obtain tihs effect ? thank for you reply.
