How to use alternate state?

[shruthibk]

Hi ,

I have built 10 kpis using text box and treading chart respectively,all the text boxes are having actions to filter out the trending chart.

When i click on text box it should filter only respective trending chart ,but it is filtering all the charts .

How can i achieve this?

Thanks,

Shruthi

Create one variable and then call simple null like vVar

Then, Go to text box layout tab and enable the condition use this If(vVar=1,1,0) and then go to Trend object then use this If(vVar=1,1,0) or use simple select in field by help of same variable

approach is not about hiding the chart.how can we use alternate state to make selection impact on respective charts?

Hi shruti,

First you can create alternate state's in settings-document properties(refer the screenshot)

You can enable STATEA in all objects in first sheet,STATEB in second sheet.

May be my fault, Alternate states are there? Can you let me know with example, I meant which text box you click and which charts you don't want to effect / Effectiveness.

Usually, We can follow kind of this? I am sorry, If still not the reach you. You may describe more

Sum({AlterState1<Month, Year>}Sales)

Dear Anil,

First you need to create alternate state ID (refer screenshot1 and create ID's first) .It will enable alternate states option in all object's automatically.Refer screenshot 2,It will show all id's which you created in setting.

Use first ID in sheet1 for all objects...second ID in sheet to for all object's.

Refer screenshot 2 for enable alternatestate in object's & chart's.
