Make a picture make a selection

Anonymous — Mon, 11 Jan 2016 12:36:17 GMT

Hi Guys

Have a quick Question

I have a text object that shows a picture. What i wanted to do was when selecting this box all related fields show in my qvw

I understand a Text object just shows the result of a selection, but how can i do this?

Thanks

Adil

You can add select in field action to accomplish what you are looking to do.

You can use the text box as a trigger to run actions, like a button.

One action could be setting a variable, this variable could then trigger a show condition of your objects you want to show.

If you want more help, post a small sample QVW with a detailed description of your expected result.

So I have this function

=count(DISTINCT (if(Assignee='Adil Hussain', IssueID)))

Do i input Field - Assignee?

Search string 'Adil Hussain'?

Thanks Sunny!!!

If that's what you want to select then yes.

Not Working?

Try without single quotes

Try as search string:

("Adil Hussain")

edit: to avoid selections of e.g. 'Adil Jones' or 'Emil Hussain'
