How to show a bar chart (progress bar) inside table cells?

Hi,

I want to show a horizontal bar inside each cell of a Straight Table in QlikView, like the screenshot below.

What is the correct way to build in-cell progress bars in QlikView Straight Tables?

Thanks!

Thanks! I took a look at the link—it’s the QlikSense way. I need to make this work in QlikView.

You can set your Expression representation to "Linear Gauge" and then mess with the gauge settings to get the look you want. I don't know if there is a way to get the numbers in the bars like you can in a barchart. I usually just put the numbers in a separate expression column.

If you use a barchart, you can put the numbers in the segments.

Thanks for the detailed explanation! It seems that this is the only way.
