Anchoring Objects inside another Object

Anonymous — Wed, 11 Nov 2015 19:21:15 GMT

I have the following objects placed in a text object:

The outer object is a text object which contains a button, a container, text objects and some fields. Is it possible in QlikView to anchor the inner objects in the main outer object so that when i move the main objects, all other inside objects move in tandem?

Regards

If you hold the mouse left button down and move it to make a rectangle containing all the objects then they will all be selected and you can move them all at once.

Is this everything in one sheet you could with ctrl+a select all objects. If not you could use a lasso-selection around all objects - an then you could move they directly together.

So :

Ctrl A To select all onjects

Ctrl C To copy them all

Go to you target sheet

Right click anywhere and choose between Paste and Paste as Link.

Bill thank you very much i managed to following your instructions and that works, however, i need to be able to copy the whole object with contents to another sheet will all its contents. Is this possible?

Thanks Bill, that works.

However some of the filters copied to a new sheet object are not working, in other words i cannot select them. What could be causing this?
