Maybe try this

TAG FIELD fieldname  with '$hidden';

using HidePrefix/HideSuffix

Not applicable

In the script define the HidePrefic like below:

SET HidePrefic = '_' ;

So all the fields starting with '_' wille be treated as the System Fields and ignored in the current selections box.

One of the main reasons for hiding a field is so that it does not show in current selections. So no, there is no way to display hidden fields in a current selection box.

This might not be possible using Current Selection Box. However, you can try to create your own space of current selection values in a different manner. You can use GetFieldSelections(hiddenField) to display the values in a text box or so. You may refer:Current Selection Alternatives

Hi,

In that rename the column names so that it won't hide in the Current selections.

For example

SET HIDEPREFIX='%';

LOAD * Inline [

%Product,Sales

Apple,100

Nokia,200 ];

SET HIDEPREFIX='%';

LOAD * Inline [

%Product,Sales

Apple,100

Nokia,200 ];

Now %Product won't display in Current selections if selected, now rename %Product to Product to display in Current Selections box.

Hope this helps you.

Regards,

Jagan.
