[#1]

Hi,

I'ld like to update slider selection in button action. Please let me know how i can do it?

Thanks

Assuming the Slider is linked to a variable you can add a button with an Action to change the variable (Actions>External>Set Variable).

Hope that helps,

I need to change multiple values for slider i.e range ex: jan - may

Could you post an example file?

It should be possible.

In below image, slider selection has to be changed according to the buttons clicks...

This may need a little further adjustment but I can get the principal working:

Associate your Month dimension with it's numeric - ie Jan = 1, Feb = 2 etc (I've caleld it 'ID'). Set your button to launch the following macro (in the case of Jun-Sep):

Sub JunSep
ActiveDocument.Fields("ID").Select ">=6<=9"
End Sub

That will make the appropriate selections for you - the challenge would be to get that to display in the Slider object - but I guess that's an aesthetic issue rather that a practical one.

Hope that helps,

Hi,

Check the attached example. Both variables and fields will work with button actions without need of macro.

Hope that helps.

Alternate soultion to the above that allows for multiple selections in the Month field based on a macro so whilst it's a Macro it should afford you more flexibility than '<' or '>'.

Either of the methods should work so I guess its which suits your needs the most.
