Hi,

thats easy, create a button, use actions, external, set variable, enter the name of your variable and nothing in the values!

Love this, but this seems to only work if the value entered in the input box is manual. For me, I have a drop down list that appears in the inputbox selector. How does one create a clear all in this situation? I've tried the examples above, but they don't seem to work in this situation.

w00master,

the solution works also with a dropdown and predefined values. But not if you use constraints (like only predefined values allowed). In this case, you have to define what a "reset" should be and set the reset value in button action.

Hope I got your point correctly,

Stefan

Maybe like attached:

I reused an idea by Rakesh (http://community.qlik.com/message/123369) and just added an additional action to clear the variable.

I haven't used the macro to clear your variable. Use an action 'External - Set Variable' instead, like in my example, triggered by an 'OnSelect' Field event for your dummy tab field (in document properties - triggers).
