Cyclic Group Button (Image)

microwin88x — Wed, 29 Jan 2014 13:17:03 GMT

Hello!

Do you know where could I get the cyclic group button as an image?

I believe I've found it somewhere in the forum, a couple of weeks ago.

I want to use it separately in my application. Where could I find it?

Thank you!!!

Can you please explain your requirement ? What i know is that we can create a cyclic group and can use the same in our graphs. But how we could use an Image, is also new to me.

Hi,

There is an image called images/cyclic.png embedded in Qlikview

so create a Text object and add the following using Image as the representation

='qmem://<bundled>/images/cyclic.png'

here is a screen shot of how it should look

If you need it in a smaller Text Object you may need to change the Image Stretch to Keep Aspect

As Aswin mentioned, we can create a Cyclic group and ca use it either in Graphs or we can use it as List box....

As of my knowledge, there is no option to use the cyclic group button as image....

Alan,

It is very intersting. Can you please explain the procedure to link up the image to the Group field...

I think the procedure would be to open any chart and create a Cyclic Group. Close that and create a new list box and select that just created. --john

I have done the same. Whenever we create a list box with group filed the cyclic image will appears.

But my question is, after creatig a Cyclic Group image using Text Object, how can we link that image to Group Field?

I also believe that it is not feasible in qv, But if someone is saying that he read it somewhere then have to check it out also. Else can miss the new knowledge (if exists).

Hi Ashwani,

please see the attached file.

1.Create a Group = g_DateSelections

2. Create a Macro =

SUB setgroup

SET gp = ActiveDocument.GetGroup("g_DateSelection")

gp.Cycle 1

END SUB

3.Create Text Object with ='qmem://<bundled>/images/cyclic.png' representation as Image

4.Add an Action to the Text Object = External Action >> Run Macro setgroup

Hope that makes sense
