3734582 - Story filter inheritance between view and edit modes behaves inconsistently in SAP Analytics Cloud

Open a story which contains some page filters in full view mode. After change some filter values and switch to Edit mode:

• For some stories, the changed filter values are inherited in Edit mode.
• For some stories, the changed filter values are reset to the original default one in Edit mode.

SAP Analytics Cloud 2026.2

1. Log on SAP Analytics Cloud and go to Folders
2. From the folder object list, open a story which contains page filters. 
   * Opening story from the folder list can make the story to be opened in full view mode.
3. In view mode, set one or more story filter, change the values and apply.
4. Switch to edit mode and observe whether the changed value will be kept or not.

The different of story behaviors are caused by whether it contains scripting or not.

• The stories without scripts retain the filter values.
• The stories with scripts do not.

In case of user prefer to get a fixed behavior like DO NOT keep the change in view mode, add a minimal script (for example, a benign widget event script) and save. For example:

1. In edit mode, select one table (if having) and edit the code for onSelect().
2. Simply add one line like Table_1.setVisible(true); in case of no requirement to make the table invisible.
