Hi,

what do you mean by: First selection is different to year ?

the first selection on the field Year is different from what ?

[chadliagabsi]

i have three selection fields (Year, month ,Direction) i do  a conditional display. if you don't select year, the app don't display any graphs. So, i need to inform user with a alert box that he must select a year.

Maybe use a textbox With condition instead

=If(GetSelectedCount(ANNEE)>0,0,1)

This Kind of alerts are activated only on opening, on reloads and on data reduction.

you can do what you want using two options:

1. Create a textobject with conditional display like this: =GetselectedCount(Year)=0

on you charts, put this on the conditional display: =GetSelectedCount(Year)<>0

2.Put this on the conditional calculation (general tabs on the charts): =GetselectedCount(Year)<>0

I understand you but it doesn't answer to my need

I want to have an alert just in openning  of my app.

if there is no Year selected on the opening, you can put this on the Alert Wizard:

GetSelectedCount(Year)=0

like this then

but i don't understand the difference with GetselectedCount(year)= 0 and GetselectedCount(year,false())
