Value forced to get selected when User tries to clear selection

Tue, 12 Apr 2016 05:43:34 GMT

Hello Team,

Is there a way that whenever a user tries to clear selection, i enforce a value from a dimension to get selected.

I do not want to use 'Always one Value Selected ' option.

Thanks

Give a Button with name "Clear All" and apply two actions on Button

1) 1st Action - Clear All

2) 2nd Action - Select in Field

There are several ways to achieve this.

You can set a "clear state" so clicking clear reverts to a predefined set of values.
You could use a bookmark.
You could add a button with Actions to set the desired values.
You could lock fields.
You could use triggers.

Of these a bookmark or button with actions would be my preferred options as this retains the standard QlikView functionality.

Triggers may confuse users as they may not be aware of why a trigger is being actioned, also if you use the Ajax client, not all triggers are active.

May be try with 'Clear State' Option.

Select Any Dimension Value -> Set Clear State (in the Clear All Option)

So, Until you reset your clear stare, Whenever the 'Clear All', It will select your default selected value.

Hi,

Create a Variable with the following expression

if( isnull(GetCurrentSelections()),1,0)

Now go to document properties and call the trigger on "OnChange" event of this variable and in that trigger use the select field option to select the default value .

Hope this helps
