In-Depth Information
The resulting
Current Selections Box
will look like the following screenshot. Notice
how every selection you make is added to the displayed list. Also note that we did
not change any of the settings in the
Current Selections Properties
dialog, you may
want to review the options yourself at a later time.
Making selections from the Current
Selections Box
Besides being a great place to quickly look at the applied filters, the
Current Selections
Box
option also allows us to interact with the selections in the following ways:
• Erasing filters: By clicking on the corresponding erase icon for any of the
displayed fields, the selection over that field will be cleared.
• Modifying selections: By clicking on the drop-down icon, a list of that
corresponding field's values will be displayed, from which we can further
refine our selection and select other values, just like with a listbox.
• By right-clicking on each of the displayed filters, we can issue additional
commands such as
Select Excluded
,
Select All
,
Clear
, or
Clear Other Fields
.
Adding a Bookmark Object
When using QlikView, we invariably come across some selections that we want to
return to at a later time. We can create a bookmark by using the menu (
Bookmarks
|
Add Bookmark
), using the toolbar, or by pressing
Ctrl
+
B
. Another option is the
Bookmark Object
. This object lets us create and remove bookmarks from within the
worksheet space.
Let's add a bookmark object to our
Dashboard
sheet by following these steps:
1.
Right-click anywhere on the worksheet and select
New Sheet Objects
|
Bookmark Object
.
2.
Enter
Bookmarks
into the
Title
input box.
3.
Mark the
Show Remove Button
checkbox.
4.
Under
Button Alignment
, select
Vertical
.
5.
Click on
OK
to create the bookmark object.
