Drill down name as a dimension

I m using a drill down in my table as a dimension and the dimension is named.

However in my table, I can see the first field that makes up the drilldown instead of the drilldown name itself.

can someone tell me how to solve this

which version of Qlik Sense are you using?

with September version you can create a master item single dimension with your expression (ex. if(... ) and use it as dimension in your master item drill down dimension.

In that way the dimension label (name property) will be shown in your chart object.

I hope it helps.

@agigliotti 

 

hello, I'm running on qlik sense server sept 2019 patch 1 and kind find the feature you describe:

"create a master item single dimension with your expression (ex. if(... ) and use it as dimension in your master item drill down dimension."

Could you share a screen shot on how to use a master item name as a dimension

 

thanks

i'm sorry because of my wrong explanation.
what you can do is to create a single master dimension with an expression label first, after change it to drill-down and add others fields as needed.
With this trick you'll have the same label mentioned above for any fields.
I hope it can helps.
