Hiya not sure if this is possible to do

but i wanted to load multiple stars into a text box, I've managed to do this with some of the custom objects (smily faces etc) but wanted to try with a custom image.

Is this possible ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Sarah,

Using an image in a textbox essentially replaces it with that image - so you wouldn't be able to show multiple images in one text box.

You could either set up 1 to n text boxes and have conditional shows on them if your expression meets a certain criteria, or more simply create 1 to n images that have increasing amounts of stars in, and use a conditional expression for which image you want to show.

You can use images in text boxes and backgrounds of some objects.

Generally if you go through the demo dashboards available at Qlik site the use images to give a colourful and creative looks.
