Setting default values in List box

PDP — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

Hello,

How do you set default values in filter. I have list of several hundred values in user selection filter and want to set 5 default values from that list that will always be selected when users access dashboard.

Appreciate the help I can get. Thank You

You can select the 5 values and create a bookmark of the same.
then set the bookmark as the default bookmark for the app, so when app opens this will be selected always

Either as bookmark as described by Dilip, or

create a trigger on open and store it with the document:

Settings -> Document Properties -> Triggers -> Document Event Triggers -> On Open -> Add Action(s) -> Selection ->

and then either "Select in Field": enter Fieldname and your selections in brackets and separated by "|", e.g. (Value1|Value2|Value3)
or choose "Toggle Select" and enter your selections one-by-one.
