GetObjectMeasure() and GetObjectField() returns NULL in title, subtitle, footer and reference line expressions
Article Number: 000058438 | Last Modified: 2018/10/29Description
Current help sites of QlikView (November 2017) and Qlik Sense (September 2018) do not mention chart functions GetObjectMeasure() and GetObjectField(). Expression editor however still highlights these function as a valid syntax.
As confirmed by R&D, these chart functions are still supported. Some notes when using these functions are as follows:
- GetObjectMeasure() and GetObjectField() returns NULL in title, subtitle, footer and reference line expressions. Root cause is that these expressions are not evaluate together with the hyper cube used for the visualization object.
- These functions will work in dimensions and expressions and in the title caption for the dimensions and expressions. It will also work for color expression.
Qlik Documentation team is working on adding manuals for these functions on QlikView and Qlik Sense help site.
Environment:
- QlikView up to November 2017
- Qlik Sense up to September 2018
