Might be your expression is wrong, That's why it showing Un filled. You need to add Condition Expressino from general tab, That's called

=GetFieldSelect(Dim={})

Hi,

First Give Any Calculation Condition in General Tab, like as

=GetSelectedCount(Dimension) > 0

Then give the message, now it will work.

Thanks

Hi Jim,

try the following steps: copy your Expression and add into calculated condition, activate then the error message, check the text: Calculation Condition Unfilfiled and add your text.

i hope that helps

You have not set a calculation condition, so the error message will never be shown.

=GetSelectedCount(field_name) > 0
