Hi All,

We have requirement to display all the products in one page along with its measures . If porudct is added then then one more control need to be added in the report area. Here is the wire frame look like: Every time new proudct is added there should be rectangle box added with its measures. Can it be done in Qlikview?.If yes let me know the high level approach.

You could try using a straight table instead of text boxes. This will limit you somewhat in the presentation options. It also doesn't scale beyond about 10 products (depending on screen space). See attached qvw.

The other option is to use a macro to create textboxes (and position them) for every product. That macro should be run after every reload. You could use the OnReload trigger for this. The api guide has examples for creating text boxes in code and for iterating over field values of a dimension.
