Dimension Drill-down field name Labels in Qlik Sense

Hi,
It would really help if we could give each field in a Dimension Drill-Down its own label or alternatively have the option to use Dimension Labels instead of fields when creating a Dimension Drill-down.
Thanks

So I actually submitted a support ticket on this very thing,.  You can technically use dimension labels if you configure them as a single-dimension first.  It will then carry forward the labeling (or if you use island tables you can select labels based on active "dimensions")

Hello,

This option doesn't work in my case, for some reason.

I writed:

IF(GetSelectedCount(Dim1)>=1, 'Dim2',
if( GetSelectedCount(Dim1)>=1 AND GetSelectedCount(Dim2)>=1, 'Dim3',
if( GetSelectedCount(Dim1)>=1 AND GetSelectedCount(Dim2)>=1 and GetSelectedCount(Dim3)>=1, 'Dim4',
'Dim1'))).

 

It just is showing to me Dim1 and Dim2. Other not.

Also, the same situation if is written:

IF(GetSelectedCount(Dim1)>=1, 'Dim2',
if( GetSelectedCount(Dim2)>=1, 'Dim3',
if(  GetSelectedCount(Dim3)>=1, 'Dim4',
'Dim1'))).

 

Any suggestion how to make it?

 

Thanks 

 

Jasmina

@jasmina_karcic would you be able to submit an example?  Also, what version of Qlik Sense are you using?

Enterprise August 2022,

I don't have example., data are real. Maybe can help you information that all these dimensions are from one table. Not from others.

Example can be like:

Dim1- City

Dim2- Street

Dim3- Address

Dim4- Someone's name.

This is a regular direction of data...:/

I get the same results as Jasmina. The labels don't change after the second dimension.

@JohannEls @Faris @jasmina_karcic @amarkow @Ian_Crosland 

You can still achieve it, you just have to write your expression like this :

if( GetSelectedCount(Dim1)>=1 AND GetSelectedCount(Dim2)>=1 and GetSelectedCount(Dim3)>=1, 'Dim4',

if( GetSelectedCount(Dim1)>=1 AND GetSelectedCount(Dim2)>=1, 'Dim3',

IF(GetSelectedCount(Dim1)>=1, 'Dim2',
'Dim1')))

If it solves your query , don't forget to mark it as "Correct" . 🙂

Thanks

What @mohammed_ahmed wrote works for me but wish the Drill Dimension would take care of this.  It seems like unnecessary development and administrative overhead.
