issue with multi value select in calendar object on access point

[#1]

Hi there,

I've included a calendar object into an application. The primary reason for this is that the customer wants to select ranges of dates. I've selected the multi value select for this purpose. If I use it in the local application it works fine however if I view it from an access point I'm not able to select multiple values.

I've tried it in a QV10 and QV11 environment and stripped the application down to only a mastercalendar but no luck. Does anyone have the same problem? But more important is there a solution?

Thanks!

I am having the same issue in  QlikView 9. On the local application, the calendar allows multiple selections but on Accesspoint, only 1 day at a time? Can anyone tell me why please?

Any ideas please?

Has this been fixed yet?

I came looking for a solution too.

Present workaround is to select the little down arrow next to the calendar instead, then select the multiple dates from the dropdown that appears.  (And if the records are timestamped, you can make a 'date(floor(recorddate)) as DateSelection' type field to use with your calendar object.  Or skip the calendar object and go with a listbox if that 1-day selection only calendar is just going to confuse end users.

If I choose multi dates but not continuous, how to do?

I find that calendar object can select multi discontinuous dates in desktop, but not work in web site.

Only solution I know of after extensive inquiries and experimentation is to make a listbox with the date field instead.  If your date field contains timestamps, you may want to use a 'date(floor(fieldname)) as fieldname_floored' for your listbox.

Edit: This relates to calendar objects not allowing multiple date selections in the AccessPoint web portal view.  Normally you'd hold ctrl-key while selecting, or drag select, and that works on your desktop.  It does not work in AccessPoint though.  (As of 11.0 SR2.  I don't think I've checked since going to version 11.2 SR12 which is the most current version I'm aware of.)

Any solution for this issue? I am facing the same issue for one dimension field. For others it is working fine!

Hi Donald, this might be a solution if the date ranges are consecutive. create two sliders and have them act as Start and End date, you would then need to use triggers or set analysis in your expressions.

I am experiencing the same problem. It would be great if this issue would be solved instead of making workarounds.
