Can I add hyperlinks to field values of a field in Multiselector?

[#1]

I have a field called issues in xls that has hyperlinks.

I want the users to be able to select issues they want from the multiselector and be able to open the respective hyperlinks.

Is this possible? I know we could use hyperlinks in expressions in charts through representation :Link

But is it possible to have hyperlinks for field values in multiselector?

Hi,

I tried to add triggers, but they didn't work for me... I included a button to open the hyperlink. I think it's even better because if the user select a value by mistake it would open the website directly... so it can confirm the selection before opening it.

Hope it helps.

HI, Koushik. I don't know if you mean the use o hyperlink in this specific case or in general.

To use it in a chart, it is better to consult this thread which was much more discussed:

http://community.qlik.com/forums/t/20198.aspx

In the case here, I load a table with two columns: NAME(name to display) and another one with the address (LINK)

The multibox is a kind of list that will show you all the possible values only when you click on it (opens a popup).

I created a multibox (right mouse button -> New sheet object >Multi Box and included NAME as the field for the object.

When the user selects a name... a LINK is selected by the association.

I included a button (right mouse button -> New sheet object >Button) and included an action
object Properties -> Action -> Add -> External -> Open URL

On the URL setting I inclued LINK.

When user selects QlikView the only LINK available is www.qlik.com

Then, when he clicks on the button that is the address that the app sends to the webbrowser

You Can do it.

Please have a look at given expression and work around this approach:

if(num(Date(trim(DATE),'DD/MM/YYYY')) >= Num(Date(trim(MinDate),'DD/MM/YYYY')) and num(Date(trim(DATE),'DD/MM/YYYY') <= Date(trim(MaxDate),'DD/MM/YYYY')),
Licenses_Description &
'<url>http://10.157.132.13:8090/omnidocs/carrefour/searchdocs.jsp?Module=Customer&Index=Customername&Value='& Customer& '&limit=0' )

After license description we passing one URL .

Try this in your case,
