Caption

smilingjohn — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

Is there any option to get only Caption from the text object .

And the caption of text object (header) should be white in colour.

In my existing QVW file when i take Text Object , the caption header is having its own format (Somthing gray colour it loooks like a mirror)

i tried to change the colour of the caption to white but still its not changing to white .

If i take a new qvw i select a text object and i am able to get the caption header as flat and the colour change to white when i change it .

Please find the below attachment f the TExt object caption which is not changing

what do you mean by get only caption from the text object?

So you only what to display the Caption rather than the text object itself?

You can edit the format of the Caption through the properties.

Try like this

Change the sheet object style to "Plain"

After that, try to change the background color of the caption

You need only caption??

Try like this , Go to text properties> Caption> Enable caption

Then reduce height of the text box ..hope this helps you

I dont find this Styling option

If i do this to plain it should not effect any of my charts propertiese becuase there are many .

I want it to affect only my caption of the text box iam going to use

In this case, try like below workaround.

If it only one text box, try like .

Create separate text box and use like header.

Same like below screenshot.

Yes there is theme for the entire QVW ,

But is there any way to get the text ojcte Show caption in plane format ?

Re: Caption

If theme is apply to whole document then whenever you create new object applied theme will be applied.

There is way create another qvw -> create object there -> copy paste this object into current document.

Hope this helps you
