Current selections in a multi language document

Hi.

I´ve been doing a Multi language document, and noe i´ve notice a problem. when the user calls the current selections Object, sees the field name not the translated label, and in most cases it isn´t his own language.

Is there any way to show labels in the current selection box?

Thank you !!

Hi,

I am having the same problem.

Is there a solution for this problem?

The labels in the Current Selections box only show the actual field name as defined in the data model.

You cannot define different labels for the current selections box.

The other alternative that I have used is to create a text box to show the current selection. Using this approach I am able to show the converted filed names.

But this text box is missing the features like clear and drop down to select a value etc.. which are available in Current Selection box.

Is there a way I can develop a extension to create a custom current selection box?

Hola Juan Antonio,

I believe you could achieve the desired result by using the "Better Current Selection Box" extension. For very detailed instructions on how to install and configure this extension, I invite you to read Stefan Walther's QlikView blog entry here:

Hi Philippe.

It's very useful. thank you. I´ve been using a text box, in wich I've been showing the current selections through variables, one for each field. It wasn´t very sofisticated but it works.
