Option to group Bookmarks

nadkalyan — Wed, 26 Jun 2013 14:41:18 GMT

Hello,

We do have about 20 bookmarks based on different Customer, Product selections. Is there a way to Group these bookmarks in sets of 10 in each group so that way User has option of choosing from 2 groups rather scrolling in to all the bookmarks

Thanks

Kalyan

No, but you could create an inline table with a field with the bookmark names and id's and their group name. You could add listbox listbox with as expression GroupName & '/' & BookmarkName and enable the Show as Treeview option for the listbox. You can then use OnSelect trigger for the bookmark name field to apply the selected bookmark. The bookmark id to activate would be =[BookmarkID] if the field with the bookmark id's has the name BookmarkID. See attached example. Instead of the treeview listbox you could also create separate listboxes for each group.

Thankyou Gysbert,

This is exactly what I am looking for. One last thing, so this bookmark list would be maintained and managed by QV developer rather Qlikview User, Correct? What happens if User creates another new bookmark , should we include that to the inline script?

Again, appreciate for quick working answer,

Kalyan

Yes, if you want the bookmark to be in the listbox then it needs to be in the inline table. Of course you could also use an external excel file to maintain the bookmark list. A user can still add bookmarks (if that feature is enabled) and find them in the bookmarks menu, but they won't be included in the listbox automatically.
