Dynamic Caption

Anonymous — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 14:53:38 GMT

I want to display an long text when slider object is maximized ("Please slide to get top customers") and a short text ("Rank") when the slider object is minimized. Is there a function in Qlickview which tells the state of the object so that I can code an IF THEN ELSE statement?

Thanks,

Dinesh.

Hi thonipad,

is it possible for you to use actions: Layout -> Minimize, maximize or restore object?

Or you can show an object bei conditions (Layout)

Hi,

As far as I know, the only way to know the status of an object is inside a macro

ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject("CH01").IsMaximized (returns true or false).

What you could try is to trigger a macro by the activate and/or deactivate of the object from the triggers (v9) or macros (earliers) tab on the sheet properties and store the info you need in a variable that you can test in you if then else command.

Hope it helps.

Is there any document which lists all objects which are available in the VB Macro editor. The QlickView Automation manual does not list the various objects which are available.

Thanks,

Dinesh.

The installation should have put an APIguide.qvw in your QlikView\Documentation directory. It should have everything in it, along with a lot of examples.
