How do I remove white space from images?

I am creating a PowerPoint presentation and utilizing a lot of images. The text boxes all have white space around them and I want to get rid of that. How can I do that?

What you mean white space around them, you can reduce the size to the value/image you are displaying in the text box. Can you send me a screen shot where you facing problem?

Hello Cliff,

This might be happening because of background color of sheet and Text boxes are different. First set the Transparency of Text boxes to 100% and then generate the images. This will eliminate the white spaces from image.

Hope this will help!

Thank you!

Rahul

They are set to 100% transparent in the QVW.

Hello Cliff,

Thank you for sharing your inputs.

What mechanism you have opted to generate the images? Have you verified that background color/background image of both sheet and object(s) are in sync?

Could you please offer your inputs? This will help me to further analyze this issue.

Regards!

Rahul

I created a PowerPoint report in NPrinting. I added the images based on the QVW I built the charts and text boxes in. When I add them as images and then drag them to the PowerPoint template, let have white space all around them.

Thank you Cliff for quick turnaround. Does QlikView shows text box without white spaces? If yes then their may be something fishy with NPrinting settings (just a guess. I am also new to NPrinting.)

Regards!

Hi Cliff,

This is expected bahaviour. If you RMB on your chart/textbox in your QlikView document and then select Copy to Clipboard > Image (or Export and select an image type) and check the result, you will find that the background transparency is not retained. Qlik NPrinting uses the QlikView Desktop API to render the chart images so you get the same result.

HTH - Daniel.
