"Explicit" select in field

Hi,

Is there a way to set up a button that only selects (colours green) when all the "select in field" parameters are met.

For instance in my example, I have 3 actions on State 1, they are all true and colour green.

But on State 2's Actions the selection France is not true, Mr B does not have product sales in Holland.

Is there a way not to trigger all of the selections if one of the selections is not true?

Thanks,

Neil.

Do I place this in the 'Search String' box under 'Select in field'?

yes, for each action.

And I agree with Marcus_Sommer‌. From a user experience perspective, the end user may not know why certain selections are not being applied. You will probably need to handle is more gracefully unless you have specific requirements.

You placed it within the action under the place for the fieldname. See also here for search-strings: The Search String.
