Wait after reload

Fri, 27 Mar 2015 10:35:28 GMT

Hello,

I would like to know if there is any time expression that I can use to make Qlikview wait for 500 milliseconds after it reloads data.

Thank you.

Best regards.

Hello Guys,

Thank you for the answers.

I will explain my problem: after reload I want to set a variable with the value '0', wait 500ms, set the variable again with '1' and wait another 500ms.

I ca easily set the variable by adding a trigger/action on post reload, but I don't know if there is a way to wait the 500 ms with between variable sets.

Do you wish to continuously toggle betw 0 and 1?

Or should this be done only once?

Where do I wirte the expression?

On script it does not work because it will wait before the reload has finished.

Create a macro like

SUB Sleep

APPLICATION.SLEEP(500)

END SUB

and call it after postreload and change of variable

Hi,

Use Sleep function here that is the correct function.
