Hi,

Inherited State:

By default, all layout objects use an Inherited state unless specifically overridden via its properties window.

Sheet objects can inherit states from a higher-level object, such as a sheet or a

container object.

Default state :

There is another state that can be specifically applied to any sheet or sheet object: the

default state. The QlikView document is always in the default state.

Additionally, once the alternate states feature has been enabled, we can create new

alternate states from any layout object by selecting the <new state> option from the

Alternate States drop-down list.

Hi,

From the referance manual,

The default state is the state where most QlikView usage occurs and is represented by $. The QlikView document is always in the default state. Objects can inherit states from higher level objects, such as sheets and containers. This means that states are inherited as such:Document - Sheet - Sheet Objects. The sheets and sheet objects are always in the inherited state unless overridden

by the QlikView developer.

Hope it helps
