Bookmark Clear issue

nadkalyan — Wed, 26 Mar 2014 14:35:58 GMT

Hello,

We have a set of bookmarks in our qvw. We are having an issue when selecting bookmarks. If I had one bookmark selected and then if i go to select another bookmark, the selections made in first bookmark are not cleared and the second bookmark is showing the selections based on first bookmark.

Every time we need to hit clear button before selecting second bookmark.

Is there a way to clear out first bookmark selections and have second bookmark selections to be enabled when selecting second bookmark.

Thanks

There are an option if a bookmark is applied on the current selection or not - have a look to managing bookmarks.

Hello Marcus, Thank you for reply. I did add the Selection box to the qvw to see what selections are made when a bookmark is selected. When first bookmark is selected it makes selections "A", when i click on any other bookmark, it keeps selection "A" and also selects selection "B" that corresponds to second bookmark. I am sure that second bookmark did not had Selection "A" in it's layout.

I have to create a trigger on Bookmark name to Clear All and then make selections when a bookmark is selected. This first clears out all the selections and then enables the selections that were set for a bookmark. I was hoping if there is a setting in Bookmarks that does this without me creating a trigger.

Thanks

Thanks Marcus Sommer Looks like that fixed the issue. I checked couple of them and previous bookmark selection is overwritten by new bookmark.

I think you will need dynamic search-strings within your bookmark then otherwise the bookmark will call the last saved selectons. Go to your listbox with your time-fields, right click, extend search and use a search-string like this:

Now it will select week 16 is it possible to let it select week 1-15?

Thank you in advance 😃

You could simply use:

= week < week(today())
