Multibox sorting behaviour

Anonymous — Wed, 23 Jul 2025 14:48:52 GMT

I noticed a different behaviour while sorting in a multibox.

upto sr10 I could sort the values within a multibox without changing the order: I used a sortingfield with numbers

and sorted it without changing the sequence (available - White - and not available - Grey -values

mixed up. The user wants to see the same order all the time (max({1}Sortorderfield)

With sr12 the sorting doesnot work as before. Now the available fields - White -are on top of the

field in multibox while not available fields are at bottom.

The same sortcondition in a listbox still works as before!!

How can I achieve the same behaviour as it was upto sr10?

How can I report an error to Qliktech?

Maybe sort to status is enabled?

unfortunately not.

we didnot change anything, just updated from

sr7 to sr12

and I tested this behaviour on my Desktop with sr10

and the app whatsnewinv11 (it worked as expected),

then upgraded to sr12 and got the same problem

- sorting was changed

the worst is that I could not achieve the behaviour as before

my customer requested an error change in our app

Then it seems that only Qlik could give an explanation and help. Until then you might need an alternatively maybe this one: Building a nicer, dynamic QlikView multibox The Qlik Fix!
