Web-style navigation menus in qlikview

neetu_singh — Thu, 14 Jan 2016 12:25:12 GMT

Dear All,

I need web-style navigation menus in qlikview. Is there any option available like extension / in-built functionality.

Basically I need to create a file as possible as web style navigation option in qlikview.

Example- For Lable, can use Product, Geography, Department and for sub-menu inside those we can use like Product view1, Product view 2 / Geography view 1, Geography view 2 etc.

Any suggestion.

Not sure I understand your ask

can you be more specific on what you consider to be web style?

is there a sample or a drawing you can provide showing your expectation?

You can create any kind of menu and navigation system you want using conditional visibility and actions. If you search the forums here you will probably find some examples.

You can also create some interesting menu/sub menu effects using nested containers.

Take a look at dropdown menu extension

It has some problems (probably you would need to tweak it here and there), but it is very useful anyway.

Hi Neetu,

I tried but It's not possible without JQuery. I have implemented sheets drop down functionality But on Text object I've not.

This can be done by JQuery only.

Hey Vedim,

Dropdown extension works on single QVW file having different sheet tab.

Can we tweak the extension to switch between tabs in different QVW's.

Example, right now if we click on Sub menu 1, it switches to different tab within the same QVW.

Is there any way that we can switch between different Qlikview file.

Please suggest.

To the best of my knowledge, that is not possible with that extension.

Harish,

which you have shared is for single qvw file.

I need document chaning concept in web view style. I mean whicle clicking on submenu option it should navigate to the other qvw file.

We can achive the same by using Action - "Open qlikview document" but in that we are not getting "web style navigation same like using dropdown extension.

Hi ,

By creating a button or text object -> Goto Actions-> External -> open qlikview Document -> there you can mention your .QVW

Hey Harish,

I know by using this, I can achieve the same but the problem is we are loosing web view style as shown in attached image. As every time we need to click on button, by I want when we hover over any menu its drill down should automatically open.
