Legend disappears - Color by Expression: Change Request

DSDD — Sat, 16 Nov 2024 17:50:32 GMT

Dear Community,

as stated in a bunch of previous posts: Where is my legend, when using color by expression?

Does a solution meanwhile exists? Or a reasonable workarround?

If not so, where to place a change request, that Qlik provides a timely solution? Ridiculous not having a legend for colors

Thanks

Thank you for your answer and for the link. In other cases the if-else-expression may help me to access divergent gradient colors.

In my example i can not take an if else statement and want to manual define colors.

But - even if i do not fully understand the argumentation - a chart without any legend is not helpful, especially regarding the limited color palette Qlik is offering .

The Only way is to create a Master Dimension for the field and Define the colour for the values of the field in the master dimension.

Thank you!
