You'll need to take advantage of conditional shows. Have you tried that yet?

Since Qlikview does not track the selection of a tab in a container (at least that is visible to user), we cannot show/hide based on a tab selection of a container. So what you are looking to do is not possible.

However! Instead of what you are doing, create "Text in Chart" and just copy and paste your formula. Then this will create sort of a textbox in your chart and you can move it around using Ctrl-Shift.

Please find attached.

Hoep this helps!

Do you mean you are not sure how to move the text once you create it? As I mentioned above, you can use Ctrl-Shift, then little red boxes will appear (First you have to have the chart selected [Just click an arbitrary point on chart to select it]). From here, you can drag the text to where you want on the chart.

Hope this helps!

Hi.

You can press Ctrl+Shift to activate edit mode in the object so you can adjust the size and position of labels such as those text comments.

Regards
