Solved: Use same expression in many graphics - Qlik Community

Hi !!

How to use the same expression in many graphics ? without copy and paste the all expression (just using an ID or Label ...)

I tried using variables , but they don't adapt to different dimensions ...

Thanx !

If you put an expression in a variable for reuse in different chart then make sure the expression in the variable does not start with an '=' character. Otherwise the expression will be evaluated at the document level instead of in the context of the object it is used in. You can use an expression in a variable in a chart expression by applying dollar expansion: $(vMyExpressionVariable)
