Expression label as image in bar chart

kamal_sanguri — Thu, 01 Dec 2016 08:12:17 GMT

HI All,

I have created a bar chart without dimension and with few expression. I want to show labels of those expression as images, I used bundled load to load images in QV. However the images are not appearing and labels contain the name of the image.

Attaching a sample file, any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks,

-Kamal

Hi Kamal,

Showing image in expression label may not be possible.

Instead i would suggest, since you are using expression and no dimension, position of the bars will not change. Use text objects for each label and place it accordingly.

Thanks Payal, Yes, I would better use a straight chart in case I would not make it. I don't want to use text objects as they would always need to be realigned, if I move the object also If there is one new item I will have to add one more image or have to remove one or more in case of less items.

I don't think that images are not allowed in labels Qlikview does allow to select an image for label ( I am thinking there must be some drop down select to say represent it as image) but don't know.

Thanks again,
