Hi all,
Mini Charts have always been a good feature in QlikView and It's really 'frustrating' that this has not been added (yet) in Qlik Sense.
With hopes that the Qlik Team will think about such improvements for the next releases, let's discuss here how to create our own mini chart in a Qlik Sense Table.
The following expressions might seem 'complicated' at first sight, but remember that It will be generic.
You'll only have to change your : Dimension(s) and Measure to adapt to your need.
Thus, their use will be very easy.
Let's begin :
Suppose we have:
As a dimension: OICA Region
As measures:
Sum(Sales)
Sum("Commercial Vehicle Sales")
Sum(Sales) / (Sum(Sales)+Sum("Commercial Vehicle Sales"))
Here is our current table:
Now, we want to add, a mini 'bar' to represent the %:
How to do so:
As an expression:
=repeat('█',
rangemax(rangemin( ceil(((column(1)/column(2))-1)*2.5),10),0)
)
With that, we repeat the square sign and precise the limits.
And as a text Color expression:
if( (sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales])))>=0.8,Green(),
if((sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales])))>=0.7,Yellow(),
Red()))
Result:
We can also Add the % in front of the bar by adding it in the expression:
From :
=repeat('█',
rangemax(rangemin( ceil(((column(1)/column(2))-1)*2.5),10),0)
)
To:
=repeat('█',
rangemax(rangemin( ceil(((column(1)/column(2))-1)*2.5),10),0)
) & num((sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales]))),'# ##0,00%')
Result:
You can even alter it as follow:
repeat(chr(09608),round( sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales])) * 10))
&repeat(chr(09617),10-round( sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales])) *10))
&num((sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales]))),'# ##0,00%')
&if(sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales]))>0.7,'▲','▼')
result:
Now, let's suppose we want to add another mini chart, a trend one, to see the % expression by Year:
If it has increased or decreased from a year to the next one.
How to do so?
Expression:
=concat(
aggr(
if((sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales]))) > above((sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales])))),
'▀',if((sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales]))) < above((sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales])))),'▄',' ')
)
,[OICA region], (Year,(NUMERIC, ASCENDING))
)
,'',[OICA region])
Wirh:
Red: Our Dimension
Green: The trending dimension
Blue: our expression compared to the previous one (by year, the trending expression)
If expression by Year > expression Previous Year then , Square Up
If expression by Year < expression Previous Year then , Square down
Result:
Special thanks to blog Von Heldendaten in which I found this:
QlikView + Qlik Sense Blog von Heldendaten: Qlik Sense Calendar Measures & "Minicharts" in Tabellen.
Hope you like it !
Omar,
Try the simplest example I could imagine 
(it works on my desktop):
[data]:
Load
RowNo() as ID
AUTOGENERATE 3;
and then in the table with dimension ID use the expression repeat('█',ID).
Hi
It works like a charm.
The only issue is that code
repeat(chr(09608),round( sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales])) * 10))
&repeat(chr(09617),10-round( sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales])) *10))
&num((sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales]))),'# ##0,00%')
&if(sum([Car sales])/(sum([Car sales])+sum([Commercial vehicle sales]))>0.7,'▲','▼')
The two bars are not overlapping but they are in sequence.
Thanks again for the code/example!
