How to Clear Action Selections

kanika kanda Dec 29, 2016 3:10 AM

I am creating a few filters using the Dashboard/Action menus and using "show all values" option when the selection is cleared. This clears the filter when we manually deselect the selected filter.

However, what I am trying to achieve is to clear the old filter selection automatically when another action filter is applied.

Thanks Sreekanth.

But this does not solve my problem.
Actually, my problem is: When I apply actions and the user selects a button, it is highlighted. When a button is still highlighted, it needs to be unselected before it can be used again. Like this you will have to double click the button to filter data (which is not a good user experience).

So all I want is that if I click one sheet and then the other sheet the selection on the previous sheet gets unselected automatically.

Hi Kanika,

We can reset action filters using Reset button.
