Hi 

i have tried "setselectionwithrefresh", and successfully created multiple layouts with auto refresh in one worksheet. 
however, it seems ""setselectionwithrefresh" apply the selection to all worksheets, how to make the setselectionwithrefresh only working for one worksheet and only, as i need to create different "Setselectionwithrefresh" for each worksheets. 

i think this  is very useful to users if possible.

    Hi @Guodong WANG,

    according to the manual, SetSelectionWithRefresh() should apply the given selection just to the current worksheet--you might want to raise a ticket with our support if you're experiencing a different behavior.
    In what manner do you start the functionality of SetSelectionWithRefresh()? A global macro connected to all worksheets?

    Kind regards
    Helmut

    Thank you for the advice. 
    it was not my intention to connect the setselectionwithrefresh to all worksheets. I would like to apply the selection to the current worksheet only. 
    however after i create multiple layouts in different worksheet, with different setselectionwithrefresh created in all worksheets, only one selection is applied after i refresh the worksheets individually. 

    refer to sample attached, "EPM Current" is auto replaced by selection in "EPM Prior".

    Hi @Guodong WANG,

    I'd propose that you opened a ticket with our support (https://support.board.com/).
    From my point of view, this is not the behavior to be expected according to the documentation in our manual.

    Kind regards
    Helmut
