Hi,

Currently the "Current selection" panel on Qlik is using the name of the filtered fields instead of the label.

Although on object part we can put specific label for the field (different from the name of the field) but when it's filtered the current selection panel showing the name of the fields. 

It's still acceptable if the our dashboard is in English / Latin characters. 

Currently we are facing non ideal situation when we have our application in Japanese / Chinese (non Latin character) as we have Japanese /Chinese label in the filter object, but in current selection panel (on top on Qlik Sense SaaS) still showing the name of the field instead. This situation is making it the dashboard feel disconnected with the "Current Selection" panel on top, and can confuse some users.

Plus, if we can distinguished the label and the name of the field, we don't need to update our formula each time the field need to change label as we can keep the field name the same for our database / expression formula, but we can display the label as needed for the user instead.

I have a similar idea post on exposing Master Item names instead of the raw data model fields - but it didnt get any R&D traction.

I am hoping to get traction also, for international use, this is very important I think.

This is also a very important function for our customers.

Furthermore, the currently selected selections should also display the correct values under "Selection" and not only as long as a master dimension is not selected.
