Current Selection Display

Hi Experts,

I wanted to display Original names in Current selection box even its after qualifying the table

Ex:

Qualify(*)

Table:

Dim1

Dim2;

Unqualify(*)

So now I will get field names as Table.Dim1, Table.Dim2, but users are looking like Dim1, Dim2 only in Current selection.

How to do this, please let me know

Thanks

I think the suggestion from sunindia is the easiest one with:

replace(getcurrentselections(chr(10), ': ', ' + '), 'Table', '')

in a textbox. But maybe these alternatives are interessting, too.

I don't think that is an option available.... may be use a text box object to show current selections instead of current selection box.

I couldn't say it without a deeper look into those workarounds then I don't use them within a productive environment and my playing around was some time ago.

By a normal current selection box you would use a prefix-statement for those fields which would be then be handled like qlikview system-fields and not displayed within the box. I don't know if this or a quite similar approach worked with the alternatives but you could try it.

Hi Marcus,

Thanks for your reply.

But i specifically need in he straight table  current selection box .

I have used current selection alternatives approach and now i want to restrict it for some fields.

Within a table-chart should it be possible to include such conditions - what are the dimensions and expressions which you used and which fields should be hidden and how looked the table?

Here if we can restrict straight table for one field it will be helpful.

Thanks

This worked with a condition within the dimension like this:

=if($Field <> 'FieldOne', $Field)

and then suppressing NULL within these dimension.
