How to conditionally show/hide objects using alternate state

Tue, 24 May 2016 12:23:00 GMT

I've tried to hide an object using layout condition

the object is with alternate state for Example "Group1"

without using alternate state the condition work just fine

How do I implement the solution with an alternative state

TNX

What is the condition that you are using today? May be specify the state in your expression:

Only({StateName}FieldName) = 'Something'

Thanks Sunny

today I'm using this expression on the layout condition

'GetSelectedCount(TARGET_NAME)=1'

I've tried to use {StateName} on my Expression

'GetSelectedCount({Date1}TARGET_NAME) = 1'

it doesn't work

Hi Ariel,

Hope you are using QV11 which doesn't have OnActivate triggers for objects anymore. Since you're using alternate states that means you're using QV11. So it's not possible to click on a chart and have an action take place. You could create a button to switch the visibility of the listboxes. Here's an example where a button is used to hide/show two listboxes

Try this:

GetSelectedCount(TARGET_NAME, False(), 'StateName') = 1

Try this:

GetSelectedCount(TARGET_NAME, False(), 'StateName') >= 1

=GetSelectedCount(TARGET_NAME,'','State-Name')=1'

still doesn't work.

I want the object to show only if i choose one TARGET_NAME and disappear if I choose more then one or I have more then one possible values

the expressions that you all sent make the object disappear and never shows again.

A stupid question Just to make sure when you write down "StateName "

it means that I need to change to my Alternate State Name of the object Like "Date1"?

Tnx for the help

Did you try this:

GetSelectedCount(TARGET_NAME, False(), 'StateName') >= 1

Re: How to conditionally show/hide objects using alternate state

yes

the sign ">" doesn't good for me because I want to show the object only if I have / selected one TARGET_NAME
