Have an Action button append to the current selection

Hello,

I am using an Action Button to select values in a field. 

If there are already selections in the field they are cleared out and the values in the variable for my action button are used.

Is there a way to have the Action Button keep the selections in the field and just add the new ones?

Thanks,

I am using 'Select values in field' with the values in a variable.

Michael

You can add multiple actions on one button 

Simply add multiple toggle actions for each field that you want to make selections on

You can try selecting multiple values from two fields, something like this

 

'(' & concat(distinct Field1,'|') & '|' & concat(distinct Field2,'|') & ')'

Instead of "Select Values in Field" Choose the "Toggle field selection option "

Hello,

This does not work for me.

I am separating the fields with a semicolon (;).

Is there any documentation from Qlik on the best way to handle multiple fields?
