Unable to highlight variable button on selection in QlikSense

Hussaina1 — Mon, 20 Dec 2021 21:38:40 GMT

Hi,

I am unable to highlight a button implemented using variable extension in QlikSense after selection. I am using the variable button to hide and show the column in a chart.

Eg: Variable(vButton) value:

if(vButton=1,0,1)

Condition in column chart: if(vButton=1,1,0)

Thanks.

Maybe this?

if($(vButton)=1,0,1)

Your value should just be the variable and then set an action to toggle the value between 1 and 0. If you set your value to that expression it is impossible for the button to function.

I see, you are using the variable extension; just use the Variable input from the Dashboard bundle

I think it's clear now what you are trying to achieve

Use the "Navigation + Actions" extension
