Label not updated when changing Label expression in Master Measure

jolof — Mon, 19 Sep 2022 08:19:08 GMT

I'm working in Qlik Sense Cloud. What reason could there be for a label to not reflect the changes in a label expression in a Master Measure?

I'm having a quite complicated expression combining fixed strings with dimensions, but whatever change I do in the strings it won't change.

When I unlink the measure the change is applied and if I add the same master measure again it's also applied. Changes are applied in the new field but not the old field.

It doesn't matter if I change the master measure via the field editor or via the master measure list or via the old Advanced options or the new simplified options editor.

I have tried to reload, copied the sheet, logged off and on but it's still not changed.

Changes in the measure expression and all other changes in the master measure are applied as they should. The change is saved but never applied.

The app and the master measure was created by another developer and then I took ownership of the app, could that impact?

What could it be?

Seems to be a bug. Have you tried to use a variable in the label instead of using expression directly?

I have reported it to support, I just need to build an app to them where it happens that I can post in the ticket.

I agree it's a bug. No, I think that change will not be applied either.
