so I am new to Qlik and want to acheiev a thing that is pretty straight forward in Tableau, but that I just don't see how to achieve in Qlik Sense.
I want to present the viewer with a drop down list of x potential dimensions to use in the graph/table visualisation. So e.g. the viewer gets a dropdown listing Country, Gender, Agegroup. And when the user change this in the dropdown, the graph/table dynamically change and present the result using the new dimension. The calculation will not change it will still be e.g. sum of measure variable.
In Tableau I would achieve this by using a parameter in my visualisation and in a selector. But I can't find a similar approach in Qlik Sense.
You can create a table that has only one field which is not named the same as any other field in your application - let's say selectedDim. This field should have the values: Country, Gender and Agegroup.

Then you can use $-sign expansion to put any of these selected and non-assosicated values in as the name of a dimension.
For the dimension the expression could be: =$(=MinString(selectedDim))
You can create a filter pane that you make rather small - then you get a drop-down. The user might multi-select so you will have to use MinString. If the users hold the CTRL key while selecting they will always do a single-select.
