Problem showing legends in alternative measure and dimension

Hello Everyone,

I am stuck in an issue in QlikSense. I have added an alternative dimension and 3 alternative measure.


Dimension:

Month

Alternative Dimension:

Quarter


Measure:

PY Monthly Sale

CY Monthly Sales

Monthly Forecasted Sales

Alternative Measure:

PY Quaterly Sales

CY Quaterly Sales

Quaterly Forecasted Sales


Now when i am switching from Month to Quarter on X-axis, i can see legends name are still same in both cases. Pls find the attached snapshot. How to correct this so that legends come as per selected dimension?


Thanks,

Nikhil Garg

This one is correct. It wont change legends.

if you have one measure and 1 dimension then you will get option to change color by dimension & Color by measure.

try that way once.

Ya, in that case it can work, but here i have to proceed with alternate dimension

AFAIK, When you are using multiple measures n one dimension (alternate Dimension). Legends wont change. because it will always assign color to each measures so legends will appear for each measure.

Selecting alternate dimension wont affect legend
