| Back | Reverts to the preceding selection state. |

| Clear all selections | Clears all selections, except locked ones. |
| Unlock and clear all | Unlocks and clears all values. |
Bookmarks
Pressing Bookmarks displays all bookmarks that are defined for the document. The current state of selections can be saved as bookmarks for later use. Bookmarks capture selections in all states defined in a QlikView document. When recalling a bookmark, the selections in all states will be applied. Bookmarks cannot be defined, only viewed, when using the layout adapted for small devices.
