Button Selection Not Showing Up In Current Selection Object

[kwarren1]

Hello,

I have a list box selection and a different button object selection showing up successfully as selections in the "Current Selection" Object, however I have a different Button Object (AvgLoS) not showing up in the current selections, and I don't know why.

Could you share your sample qvw?

Hi Kevin, the Current Selections shows fields and the values selected.

When you click the button, if it really selects a value in drg_los field, it will be shown in Current selections, if it's not shown it can be because:

- The field doesn't exists

- The value doesn't exists or can't be selected

- The field is a hidden field. The variable HidePrefix and HideSuffix set the pattern of the hidden fields, this fields won't be shown in Current Selections, check the script for HidePrefix, maybe you have a line with "SET HidePrefix = 'drg_';"

With the selections you had at the time you selected the "drg_los" field, was there the "AvgLos" item available to select?

Ruben,

Thank you for for your response and help learning. You are on to something.

The field exists in my data model, but the string of text or value I was trying to refer to did not exist within the drg_los field. I changed the search string to search for a known value, but I am still not getting the current selection to appear in the Current Selections box. Can those values not be selected in this search string?

I checked the script and variable overview and confirmed there was no variable hiding or preventing.

Are you using Alternate states by any chance?

To make it simple ..try like this add a list box for the drg_los field and on the button click check whether the listbox is getting selected or not . If you see any selection then you need to get the same in the current selection also ..if your not able to see any value selected in the list box then their is some issue with the selection trigger your writing .

Sorry if that was only for the example but did you try without parentheses and quotes if you are not using expressions in the "Search String"?

Because it seems that the button is not actually selecting, regardless whether or not is shows in the current selections object, if the data does not change, right?

Any document, sheet, field or variable trigger which is not allowing to perform that selection or, as soon as you click it, it selects something else? Is there a listbox somewhere in your app with "Always One Selected Value"?

Hi Kevin, the answers from Sunny, Avinash and Miguel are good things to check.

You can try adding a list box of the drg_los field and try to manually select the value, this way you can check that there is no other field or configuration preventing to select the value.

If manually works try setting the action value as 19 (without parenthesys or quotes).
