How to set the first value of a field as a filter?


Hello everyone,

I am creating a chart where i need to apply the first value of the field "Process" as the default filter (view).

When the user open the dashboard, it is needed that the chart already display this first line of the dimension "Process".

The goal of this, is to not display too many information in the chart.

Thanks,

Or you can set it by addressing the last value on the field, using the following code:

Temp:

LOAD            LastValue(ID) as ID,

                      LastValue(Value) as lastValue

Resident Table;

Then you can set the variable like this:

vView:

=lastValue

Hope it helps

Thanks for your tips MB.

Thats what i did:

I created the variable to set the first value of the field "Process" as you can see below:

varProcess= peek('Process', 0, 'ProcessTable');

After that, i used On Open Trigger to select the variable value that i want to display and applied an alternate state to set this trigger only in the chart i needed.

The problem is that i lost the filters from other objects from my sheet.

Do you know if it is possible to set more than one alternate state in my chart?

Thanks
