Using wildcard in Qlik Sense List search & selection

Hello,

Does anyone know if there is some way to use wildcards to make a selection in the exploration view?

For example, if I use a wildcard character in a UI search, the checkmark button is inactive:

Is there some way to actually make the selection of this set of items (other than clicking each one individually)?

Thanks,

Tanya

I discovered why we were having trouble with this. It only works if there is nothing already selected.

It's not very convenient but I think you will need to deselect the field at first and then applying your search-selection - maybe in some future releases there are more features - especially a customizing option to disable all the confirmations if I really want to select these values .

The global search function might be better for you than doing it this way.  Just a thought.
