Setting service not updating automatically (Widgets)

[Mhaynes]

The setting service is not updating automatically (requires manual refresh).

Below is a simple example from a demo asset.

The Global Filter is the Year dimension, and the widgets comparing Year and Prior Year is using the Prev attribute on Year. When changing the Year element, the Widgets don’t update immediately (e.g. Grid widgets and Column charts).

Manually clicking refresh updates the charts. Refer screenshot for step by step.

Version 2021.02 FP2.

MDX Used used:
{
[Year].[Year].[$<<IMDB.Year.Year>>]
,
[Year].[Year].[$<IMDB.Year.Year::Prev>]
}

@Mhaynes , have you tried using the "getAllAttributeValues" parameter? By default, UX doesn’t load all attribute values for performance reasons but this parameter forces this. I found that using the setting service reference to attributes ($<<IN.DIM.DIM::ATTR>> only refreshes automatically if this parameter is enabled.

Thanks for the pointer. I’ll try that out, or maybe just go back to using MDX to reference the attributes. Cheers.

I was able to replicate this issue and I also tried using the solution mentioned by Wei and it works.
