Selectable dates in my data may cover 3-4 years or more. In most cases, the date range to be selected will be within the most recent 4-6 months. Is there any way to restrict the display on the slider, as trying to display several years is impractical.</P><P></P><P>Thanks</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 15 Mar 2016 08:43:49 GMT richard_chilvers 2016-03-15T08:43:49Z Limit extent for slider scale https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Limit-extent-for-slider-scale/m-p/1074235#M523555 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I am considering using a slider scale to select a date range (using a field as data and using Multi-Value mode).

If you use variables then you can.
