Default prompt using Multi Box

Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

I am using Multi Box in QlikView to enable dropdown selection and I was wondering if there is a way to preselect or assign default selection without requiring a user to manually select from the list? If so, can you please provide examples?

You can look into OnOpen Triggers:

Thank you both for the quick feedback but I am still unable to set default prompt. Ideally, I would like '20160530' to be selected as it is the most current or max period. Attaching sample qvw..., maybe you can use this to show me how your suggestion works (ignore the radio buttons).
