How can I get my Set Analysis expression to pick up selections from any field in a Default State?

[jblomqvist]

Hello all,

In a measure I have the following expression:

sum({StateA<Year=$::Year>}LineSalesAmount)

In this example I have got the expression to select anything from the Year field.

How can I get my chart to update based on multiple fields without having to specify it in the expression?

Like this: sum({$}LineSalesAmount)

Which is the same as sum(LineSalesAmount)

.... unless the expression is within an object with an Alternate State set......

True, thanks Bill.

Not necessarily. See this blog post: Set Analysis & Alternate States – Quick Tip » The Qlik Board!. Perhaps there should be a symbol for the inherited state too. That would allow one to always be explicit about which state should be used.

Yes, it would be helpful of course.
