Dynamic Chart - Help...

Thu, 10 Jan 2013 14:15:40 GMT

I am using QV11 and would love to create a dynamic chart much like the one uploaded by Orca on this site - however I do not understand how the data gets into the chart and why it appears to be a load inline statement.

I am trying to load dimension fields that already are populated in a couple of tables Ive already created - do these need to be in one table for the load inline to work? Do I need to have a Load inline statement?What is the %dimension field doing on the inload inline?

I have managed to show the field names inn two list boxes - one for expressions and one for dimensions - but no corresponding data in the listboxes or populating the chart ~(however the dimension/expression name appears in the chart on selection)

Apologies I am new to Qlkiview,VB and SQL and thanks in advance for your help.

That example uses a macro to actually re(build) the chart. Did you copy the macro code too? And add the action to OnAnySelect document trigger?

Since you're using QV 11 you have an easier alternative that uses the conditional display option for dimensions and expressions. Attached is an example created by rebeccad.

Thankyou for your reply.

I have included the macro and it still doesnt work.

I will try the logic for the attached version in QV11. Do it I have to copy this macro again also? or does this work without a macro?

Thanks

I have got this working and its fab!

No macros are required thank god 🙂

The part that was confusing me was the table load of field names for the user to select - I didnt realise these were just text fields that are linked to the dimension/expressions on the actual Graph itself.

Thankyou
