TEXTLIST() for displaying values
Hello all,
I've been wondering about a way to display selected values.
To give an example,
In my screenshot, three countries were selected and i like to display them to give users a sort of a recap.
So i tought using textlist() as follow :
However, it doesn't work and it seems that the problem resides in the fact that my List is in production data(which i really can't disable..).
Is there any way to display selected values within a line item ?
Thanks,
Hugo

You can, if you remove country list from the line item's dimension (as it says in the error).
But let me suggest another solution to you.
It's not a best practice to use TEXTLIST if you can avoid it.
Which you can if you publish the module the second time, but now filtered by selected elements ('Save ?' = TRUE)
You can hide all the columns of this module. So you will get a list of selected countries only.

Out of curiosity,Why your first solution that consisted to remove the list from the module dimension is not preferable ?
