selectValues method
selectValues(dimNo, values, toggleMode)
Method used to Select values in this object. This will activate the selection toolbar and look to the user like a standard Qlik Sense select.
If you instead want the selections to be sent to the Engine right away, use the selectValues method in the backendApi, which has the same parameters.
Tip noteRefer to Horizontal list for an example that shows both ways of making selections.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| dimNo | Number | Dimension number (ignored if listbox) |
| values | Array | Array of values to select |
| toggleMode | Boolean |

Example
$element.find('li').on('qv-activate', function() {
if(this.hasAttribute("data-value")) {
var value = parseInt(this.getAttribute("data-value"), 10), dim = 0;
self.selectValues(dim, [value], true);
}
