Partial Alternate State in Qlik

Greetings,

I have a Qlik dashboard which has 6 tabs in it, every tab has 5 list boxs in it and I have implemented alternate state so all tabs list box selection/deselection are separate from other tab.

Out of 5 list boxes 3 list boxes are Locked on all tabs and my client want remaining 2 list box should share selection/deselection from other tabs.

Let me know if it is feasible to implement partial alternate state in Qlik.

You set the state per object, so open the properties of the list box and change the Alternate state on general tab from (assumed that you are using currently) inherited to e.g. default state or the state that should be shared by these list boxes.

In your charts, you may need to mix states using set analysis in your aggregations:

Sum({AlternateState1< FieldToShareFromDefault = p({$}) >} Value)

or using the scope operator :: to reference the selection state of another state (like default state $)

Sum({AlternateState1< FieldToShareFromDefault = $::FieldToShareFromDefault >} Value)
