Having Issue in Bookmark's ''+'' Option

nikhilgarg — Mon, 03 Nov 2014 10:05:02 GMT

Hey,

For Bookmarks , with "+" Option , it is written that:

If the check box is marked for a bookmark, that bookmark will be applied

without first clearing existing selections in the document. A bookmark can

only be applied on top of existing selections if they do not conflict with the

selections in the document.

But when i select any value in a field and then open a bookmark then previously selected value is not shown.

Why is it so ??

Thanks

A bookmark can only be applied on top of existing selections if they do not conflict with the

selections in the document.

Contradicting selections are not possible. So if the selections of the two bookmarks conflict the previous selection is cleared. And it will be cleared completely, not just the conflicting values.

Look at this example table:

Month, Product, Sales

1, A, 5

2, A, 10

3, B, 15

4, B, 10

If you select product A, then month 3 and 4 are not possible values. These values conflict with product A. If you have one bookmark with the selection product A and you have a second bookmark with selection month 4 then you cannot apply the bookmarks on top of each other. The selections contradict each other. Activating one bookmark will clear the selections of the other.

Hey,

I am attaching my qvw . Please have a look and let me know how we can make an example so that Bookmarks selected should retain previous selection also.

Thanks
