topic Reload clears all field selections, even if clear state includes a selection or apply bookmark upon open or reload on server, how do I fix this? in QlikView https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Reload-clears-all-field-selections-even-if-clear-state-includes/m-p/1057756#M1253276 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi All,</P><P></P><P>I have a dashboard that I need to open up on the server with the year selected to 2016 by default. There is a lot of data that users can go back and see, but commonly they are focused on the current year and I want it to open to this selection. However, after a server reload, I find that the qvw is cleared of all selections, even if the clear state has been set to include a 2016 selection. I have also tried using the onopen and postreload triggers to set a bookmark which includes 2016 selected.</P><P></P><P>My users use safari and chrome, so not IE and no plugin. How do I get this to start on a 2016 selection by default?</P><P></P><P>P.S. I can confirm that it is clearing the selection and not just maintaining a cleared selection... if I reload using server and then open the file using QV desktop, the selection is suddenly nothing. Just because sometimes the server will remember the selection and sometimes not after a reload.</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT richard_cioci 2026-01-26T18:19:17Z Reload clears all field selections, even if clear state includes a selection or apply bookmark upon open or reload on server, how do I fix this? https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Reload-clears-all-field-selections-even-if-clear-state-includes/m-p/1057756#M1253276 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi All,</P><P></P><P>I have a dashboard that I need to open up on the server with the year selected to 2016 by default.
