Put custom image as label

Fri, 19 Jul 2013 10:49:19 GMT

HI,

i have a pivot table with 6 columns,

instead of typing label fr each column, i want to put an image of what it indicates.

in the expressions panel, i can see images, but it only has a built in library of images, how can i load an image frm my computer and put as label ?

I think a picture as label is not possible, but you could put a additionally picture in the first row, only for this purpose generated empty row that contains the picture: if(DataTyp = 'Picture', 'qmem ....', sum(AnyValue)).

You could also use other pictures as the builtin icons - put your pictures in the same folder. Also you could use absolute path to any pictures you want or use the bundle() functionality - see here the help and the qv demo presidents.qvw in your install folder.

You can't use images as background instead of text for labels. You can use textboxes and put them over the labels. The textboxes can have an image set as background.
