Filter on part of a word

Hi all

I have a question: is it possible to search on a part of a word in Qlik Sense? 

For example: when I want to search for 'Samsung', and I am typing a mistake like 'Amsung', it won't search for Samsung.

Is there any way to get around this?

Thank you all for the information!

Femke

You can use * as a wildcard. *amsung will search for any words ending in 'amsung', while *amsung* will search for any string that contains 'amsung' somewhere in it.

Yes, it's working. Thx. But that I already knew 😉 

You still need to type * then, but is there a way to set this as default?

As far as  I know, there is not. You could go vote / comment on this idea which suggests adding it as an option:

But given the idea is from 2019 and hasn't been implemented yet, I wouldn't hold my breath.
