Hi,
Could you please tell me here what represent light grey values ? I am trying to understand.
The associative selection model ‒ Qlik Sense on Windows
Photo is taken from QLik Help . Is it exluded or alternative ?
Thank you

In the example below, you see I have selected 'Africa' (continent). I also selected 'Egypt' (country). Both these selections are green and will produce results for these selections.
Light grey appears for the country items because you selected 'Africa' as continent and 'egypt' as a country. the remaining light grey items are 'alternate' selections that are available in the 'Africa' continent.
So 'Light Gray' are not excluded selections. They are alternate possible selections for the 'Africa' continent. One or all of the light grey options can be selected to produce chart results for the 'africa' continent.
Selecting an unrelated country ie: Canada will produce 'excluded' results because Canada is not part of Africa continent.
Deselecting Canada will correctly remove the light grey 'North America' as a continent leaving the selected leaving only dark grey (excluded from 'africa' continent and light grey alternate selectible values for country related to 'Africa' continent. See second image).

Hi
The help page you referenced is here..
Here is a Qlik youtube video that further describes selection behavior.

Regarding your specific question.
See the image and help description below:
But if you select one of the possible values in the filter pane Year, all the values in Decade that were alternative become excluded instead. When only 1910s was selected they were alternative, but with selections in two filter panes, values that do not match the condition 1910sAND1918 are excluded.
The values that are alternative in Year are only excluded by the selection 1918. They are all associated with the value 1910s and had the state possible until 1918 was selected.
Kind regards...
Hi Frank,
I am still confused, in your case - Countries values that are light gray are Alternative or Excluded values when country China is selected, (have on mind that filter - Continent - (Africa and Asia) are still selected)?
If i well understood the values light gray are excluded ?
Could you please confirm ?
Thanks.
