Hi all,

I would request you all to provide advise on slider object clear selections using button or clear option.

Concern: I have a slider object and the selections made in the slider object reflects in other charts so the data changes.

Now i have to clear the selections in Slider object that i made first.

Note: I dont want Macro option to clear the slider selections.

Please select me any approach

Regards

john

Hi John

If you create a text object or button then you can assign an action to clear all and another action to reset the variable used within the slider object.

Thanks

If you are just using a field to populate the values in the slider object then this extra action wouldn't be required as clear all would also clear the selections made.

It is possible to use variables instead of a field within the slider object though.

For example you could set up 2 variables and call them vMin and vMax

Select these in the Slider Properties and give a min value of 1 and max value of 10.

When the user uses the slider this would then dynamically change the value stored in the variable which can be used for set analysis purposes.

You would then need to assign an extra action on your clear button to reset these.

Actions>External>Set Variable

Type in the variable name and the value you want it to default too.

Then when user clicks your clear button it would clear all selections and also change the variable back to the default value (or a null value if required)

Well, I was doing it while Daniel posted the answer, I was adding some dynamism depending of the sales values, take a look in case some of this can give an idea when assigning min and max values.
