Masking Names

Hello,

Is there any way that a Name can masked in Qlik? I have a customer list though when I select a specific customer I would like the rest of the names to be masked.

In my example below, If I select Jeff, I would like the rest of the customers to be masked. See the example below.

Appreciate any help....

Bob10Cust210
Jeff5Jeff5
Ron100Cust4100

When you say mask do you mean you want to not show the other customers  after Jeff or any other customer is selected ?

When you select a dimension (e.g. Jeff)  on a chart then only that dimension will be displayed i.e. Jeff

This is the way the associative engine works.

Or do you require something else ?

You could try it with an expression like this:

if(getselectedcount(Customer) = 1,

     if(len(only(Customer)) >= 1, Customer, 'Cust' & rowno()),

     Customer)

Hi Paul,

I would like the other customers detail to still show, though not display their original name.

So in the example I provided. If I select Jeff, i would like so see all the other customers with a masked named.

Example Alex would display Cust1, Bob would display, Cust2, Ron would display Cust4
