When viewing your presentation at runtime, there are several options that you can access from the hamburger menu at the top-left corner of the presentation. These options let you refresh the content of the discoveries; apply, edit, or add bookmarks; print, subscribe, edit, or copy a link to the presentation; enable multi-highlight mode; enable the workflow dialog; or interact with the presentation using hidden slicers or slicers from other slides. The purpose of this menu is to provide advanced options for runtime users without cluttering the screen with fields that are instead reserved for when they are needed.
Access the Present runtime menu
- Click the hamburger menu. This is typically at the top-left corner of each slide (green arrow).
- Select the options in the panel as required. Click here for more information.
The Present runtime menu opens to the left of the page.
Note: You can close the panel at any time by selecting the Close option (X) at the top-right (red arrow).
Present runtime menu options
Refresh options (basic)
- Undo: Undo the previous action.
- Redo: Redo an action that was previously undone.
- Reset: Undo any changes that you have made to your presentation at runtime. Note that this restores the presentation to its last saved state. Tip: You might want to Reset before you, say, export your presentation. This is because your runtime changes will be reflected in the exported presentation.
- Re-run: Re-run the queries in the presentation to ensure the data is up to date.
Tip: You can also Undo, Redo, and Reset from the navigation options that are typically shown at the top-right of the presentation and from the context menu when you right-click the canvas.
Bookmarks
Create, edit, and apply bookmarks to this presentation. Bookmarks save the slicer selections for a presentation, allowing you to load a preferred set of selections across the presentation and avoid having to manually change each of the slicers.

- Pre-query slicers: (Not shown.) If pre-query slicers are enabled for your presentation, this option opens the management dialog where you can set the initial slicer selections that should be used on launching the presentation at runtime, before the query is loaded. For more information about this option and pre-query slicers generally, see Pre-query slicers at runtime.
- Slicers: Enable, disable, and select options from hidden slicers; that is, slicers that are not visible on the current slide but are enabled in the presentation. Depending on the design of the presentation, making selections from these slicers may or may not affect the visuals, other slicers, and dynamic assets of the currently open slide.
