Listbox "Auto-fill-up"

Hello,

I have a standard listbox where I can choose accounting periods:

The data in the application is calculated in advance (accumulated): For example if I choose the period 8 the account balance reaches from period 0 to 8. The same if I choose the periods 6-8 or 4-8 or 3-8.

Therefore I try to "auto-fill-up" the values in the listbox. When the period 8 is selected, the periods 0-8 should automaticalley be selected. Same thing when I select the values 6-8 for example.

I know that I "rape" the listbox in some way, but otherwise the user could be confused 🙂

Thanks for answers.

Hi,

Although it would be technically possible, that's not what a listbox is intended to... I'd rather use a slider object with a variable, and use this variable in the chart expressions instead.

Apart from that, it will depend on how you already have written your expressions to not be affected by selecting 8 values (0,1, 2... 😎 instead of one.

Why don't you create a text object where although the user selects only one value (8) the text object reads "Period selected: from 0 to 8"? It's much less confusing and you keep QlikView functionality at the same time.

Hope that makes sense.

Miguel
