Hi All,

I have attached a samle QV. There are two charts Invoice , amount and a multi box. I want to show the multi box when invoice chart is selected and to hide the multi box when other chart is selected.

Please provide a solution

Only by using a button. Check attached.

Hi,

I dont want to use button. Since in my original applicaiton, i should not use button. On selection of graght the multi box should be shown or hide.

Gerard

There are no actions for objects, except buttons. Not sure if there is another way. Maybe somebody else can help.

There is no event fired when you select a chart, so it is not possible to react in that way. The button solution posted previously would also be my suggestion.

You could possible achieve something by messing around with transparent text box overlays firing macros, but this would complicate the chart and potentially confuse the user.

Hi,

Is there any way to have a macro to hide and show the multibox.

Maybe yes but then you would assign to a button. Actions are much better than macros for a number of reasons.
