Error message in Combo chart to restrict the user from selecting more than one value from one of the list box.

[qlikviewforum]

Hi,

In a combo chart I want to display the error message to the user if more than one value is selected from one of the list box. Please help to achive this

go to General tab, click Error Message button and write your error message in the Custom Error Message text box, then in the General tab also there is a text box for Calculation Function, in there you can define your condition ex:

If(GetSelectedCount(FieldName)>1,0,1)

I did the same thing but it is not working. Please help!

Share your application with me to try it, I tried it before and I am pretty sure that it works fine.

Sorry I cannot attach the application due to confidential/security reason. Can you please attach some sample work around if you can? That would be helpful

In the Combo chart, Layout tab --> Show --> I have already have condition called

FieldName='XYZ' or FieldName='ABC'

So the same fieldname whatever we have used as condition in Layout tab, the same has been used in the Calculation Condition in the General tab.

I think this is what causing the issue. Any idea how to overcome from this?
