Button Actions:Bringing chart at the top

Wed, 19 Feb 2014 07:43:34 GMT

Hello,

My requirement is to place 3 charts over one another of exactly same size. Then, creating 3 different buttons respective to each chart.

If I click on any of them then that particular chart should come at the top and other charts should hide behind the active one. This will enable switching between charts.

I wonder if anybody could help writing this action for a button?

Note:- I cannot open QVD file in my version of qlikview as I am using trial version and it doesn't support qvd created by other users.

Kind Regards,

Varun

Go to tab "actions"->add->Layout->activate Object

that should always put the object in front that you want.

For each button,

Properties-->Action-->Add-->Layout-->Activate Object--> Ok

Here we need to provide the "Object ID", which we want to highlight.

Aplly the same logic for all 3 objects.

Thanks,Pradeep

You could put the 3 charts into a container.

The easiest way to obtain the result is working on hide/show properties:

1) Set 3 variables to 0 v1, v2, v3 (they will have values 0 or 1)

2) In the layout tab of the charts, in show go to conditional and write v1=1 (in the first object), it will disappear.

3) in the button when you press it trigger the external action to set the variable to 1 (v1=1) click the button and the chart will appear again

Do the same for others buttons

Hope it helps

Thanks Pradeep,

But this action is just for activating/Highlighting a chart. It is not solving the purpose of bringing it to the top.

I was not aware of this option. This would solve my problem. Thanks Mr. Albert.
