qmem - not displaying

derekledbetter — Tue, 13 Jun 2017 16:22:05 GMT

I realize this has been answered and I'm still having issues with it. This is the desire.

Qlikview V11. is the version being used. I saw one area where V11 doesn't work. Is that true?\

Below is the code to show the script and text object.

InLine

/* images and icons URL paths */
SET pGlobalImagePath = '.\Images';

/* Global and Local Images and Icons */

Images:
BUNDLE LOAD * INLINE [
ImageID ,ImagePath
splash ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\splash.png
splashlogo ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\splashlogo.png
infobutton ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\infobutton.png
getstarted ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\getstarted.png

logo ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\logo.png
infologo ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\infologo.png
CS_collasped ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\CurrentSelections_collapsed.png
CS_expanded ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\CurrentSelections_expanded.png
searching ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\searching.png
CompanyLogo ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\EA_Horizontal.png'
];

---- Notice = the images is to be in another folder. I took it this folder needs to be under what is running.

For example, if the .qvw is running in "imageplacement" folder, then the images is under that folder.

\ImagePlacement\Images ===== is this correct?

Then, the .png is there and is not working at all.

Text Object

='qmem://ImageID/CompanyLogo'

=== and the background is set to blue, the only thing showing is "BLUE". the image is not showing.

What am I doing wrong?

I'm not sure but I think the reason for not working is your relative path to the image-folders. I suggest to replace them with a full-path contructed per documentpath() maybe similar to this:

left(documentpath(), index(documentpath(), '\', -1) & 'Images\'

I'm also having this problem.

I've tried every way i can to bundle load images into the qmem but whichever way i do it, although the log file tells me the references from the image and location list has been picked up, qmem only show the "<bundled>/" images in the expression builder.

SCRIPT Images:
Bundle LOAD * INLINE [
ImageID ,ImagePath
splash ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\splash.png
splashlogo ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\splashlogo.png
infobutton ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\infobutton.png
getstarted ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\getstarted.png

logo ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\logo.png
infologo ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\infologo.png
CS_collasped ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\CurrentSelections_collapsed.png
CS_expanded ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\CurrentSelections_expanded.png
searching ,$(pGlobalImagePath)\searching.png
CompanyLogo ,'C:\QLIK\ImagePlacement\Images\EA_Horizontal.png'
];

This now shows up in "Edit Expression" in Text object Properties. It shows correctly. However, it still is showing the "Background color and not the image.

Representation is image.

here's the text -

'qmem://ImageID/CompanyLogo' - which does work now, when the image is on "C". Apparently, me using the \\dev server - does not work.

Maybe you are missing the bolded part of this example:

= 'qmem://<bundled>/ImageID/CompanyLogo.png'

I don't believe DSE $() substitution will take place in your inline data

,$(pGlobalImagePath)\

You will need to specify the actual path.

jonathandienst — Fri, 07 Jul 2017 05:26:20 GMT

Rob is correct. Move the dollar expansion out of the Inline part:

Images:

Bundle LOAD ImageID,

If(ImageID = 'CompanyLogo'), ImagePath, $(pGlobalImagePath) & '\' & ImagePath as ImagePath

INLINE [

ImageID, ImagePath

splash, splash.png

splashlogo, splashlogo.png

infobutton, infobutton.png

getstarted, getstarted.png

logo, logo.png

infologo, infologo.png

CS_collasped, CurrentSelections_collapsed.png

CS_expanded, CurrentSelections_expanded.png

searching, searching.png

CompanyLogo, 'C:\QLIK\ImagePlacement\Images\EA_Horizontal.png'

];

Its a bit messy because CompanyLogo comes from a different location.

Rob,

Thanks. I will try that.

What if all the images come from the same location? Will that make it better? Also, it still has a "blue background" and the image is not showing. What is still wrong?

@jonathan dienst, I tried it and when putting in the script, it produces "errors"

I even tried taking everything and posting screen shots below.t the company logo out. Still can't get the

Place a = sign in front of the expression, like

='qmem://<bundled>/BuiltIn/arrow_e.png'

And maybe you also need the <bundled> bit, to be sure use the paste button

I did use the "paste" button - that's what it generated.

Will try "=" - thanks.

Hi,

What if the image is in the same place as $expansion?

How do you use that ?

Thanks,
