Hi Sir

The sample just a example only , it only can display 2 bar , which is not impt. key point is why the field name change to number.

hi,

i could not figure out that why it is visible as no.. i am working on qlikview-11 which is not having same option as yours..

there is a suggession for your requirement is to have a variable instead of putting field name in Max visible number option.

create a variable say.. vbars=getfieldselections(iDiff_Values_2) and then use the varibale in Max visible number option as $(vbars).

Hi Sushil

I just check it work fine now. I think now it is hard for QV to change variable name to number , because you create a interlock.

Thank you
