Hi Everyone,
I'm fairly new to qlikview and with one project under my belt I'm looking at a new one which is a lot more challenging.
Basically the document will need to retrieve images from a file store on the network based on the criteria set in the list boxes. I can't load the images into the document as there could potentially be thousands of images. I've started playing around to prove this can be done and decided that a macro is the only approach. So far I can click on a value in a listbox and then push a button, this triggers a macro which goes and retrieives the image and displays it in a container for me which is great. I can also do this for multiple images as well now, but I have 2 problems...
1. I don't know the syntax to set the Image Strech to Keep Aspect (cant seem to find it anywhere for Foreground image
2. The 2nd, 3rd pics that I load are very blurry and lose quality, if I load the images without a container the quality is perfect
Below is the Macro I have so far:
sub OpenPics_Cont
IMG_PATH = "C:\Users\Public\Pictures\Sample Pictures\"
Set ContainerObj = ActiveDocument.Sheets("Main").CreateContainer
set ContProp=ContainerObj.GetProperties
set LB = ActiveDocument.GetSHeetObject("LB01")
pg=LB.GetPossibleValues
for i=lbound(pg) to ubound(pg)
set mytext=ActiveDocument.ActiveSheet.CreateTextObject
prop=mytext.GetProperties
prop.Layout.ImageRepresentation.Presentation = 1
prop.Layout.Text.v = "='" & IMG_PATH & pg(i) & ".jpg'"
mytext.SetProperties prop
ContProp.ContainedObjects.Add
ContProp.SingleObjectMode=1
ContProp.SingleObjectStyle=1
ContProp.ShowObjectTypeIcons=true
ContProp.ContainedObjects.Item(i).Id =prop.Layout.Frame.ObjectId
ContProp.ContainedObjects.Item(i).Text.v = pg(i)
ContainerObj.SetProperties ContProp
mytext.close
next
end sub
Does anyone have any idea's how I might be able to adjust the aspect of the image and why the image quality is so bad.
