Hello, @herard_bertrandAARP org 

To change the default selection color in QlikView, you can follow these steps:

Create a Theme:

Go to Settings > Document Properties > Themes.
Create a new theme and customize the colors as desired.
Save and apply the theme to your document.
Use Macros:

Open the macro editor via Tools > Edit Module.
Write a macro to change the selection color:

Sub ChangeSelectionColor()
Dim vDoc
Set vDoc = ActiveDocument
' Set the selection color to blue (RGB(0, 0, 255))
vDoc.GetApplication.VisualizationColorPrimary = RGB(0, 0, 255)
End Sub

Run the macro by going to Tools > Run Macro.

Custom Expressions:

Use custom color expressions in charts:

If(GetSelectedCount(FieldName) > 0, RGB(0, 0, 255), RGB(255, 255, 255))

Adjust RGB values as needed for your desired color.
By applying any of these methods, you can change the default selection color in QlikView.

I hope this information is helpful to you.

Best Regard,
