You can set variable event triggers on Settings - Document Properties - Triggers.

You can set them to trigger actions when a variable value is input or changed (e.g. input by user in an input box or modified, because the expression set in the variable evaluates to a different result because of some selections).

Whene ever you make a variable it will one value to it.

So if you want any kind of action for a specific value for that variable.

For example vTemp1=0

and if it becomes 1 we can put action or vice versa.

see there are some variable which you define in the script while you write a code. those values will be passed to other application.

But one which you make it during UI cannot be passed.

If i create a variable in script and and then if the variable is change then i will have trigger on On change event as Open new qlikivew document, and i created same variable in other document. So is it the case that the value of the variable will be passed to second document?
