Interaction Behavior

Hi,

 

I have 2 controls, and would like to have below behavior

1. click [Code Sent To] >> Email, the second chart's number will reduce

2. click second [Code Validation] >> Valid, it then change the values in control 1.

 

The issue is whenever I click control 2, it overwrite the selection in control 1, which is similar to a RESET action. Is there a way to select control 2, while still remembering the selection on control 1.

 

The above behavior is the default in Qlik sense, and I am finding the interaction is really hard to handle, and frustrating. Thanks

Hi @spagad6263 ,

 

By your image you are refering to tables visualizations, in the case of visualizations overall when you select a value on on of them and you want to select another value on another in order to combine the selection you need to use the CTRL to have the selection kept.

 

If you use slicer then this is not needed because they work together.

Yes. Have to use CTRL + selection, which is a bit inconvinent. Hope new version PB can have similar behavior like Qlik. This is one of the useful features missing in PB - in my opinion. Thanks.
