Add comments

Hi,

is i possible, and how, to add comments regarding a measure ?
Problem is that as Qlik allow the user to operate many selections, the comment has to be saved according to the context of selections operated.

So :
- is it possible to "save the selections operated" ?
- what kind of object may be used to enter the comment (input area is not really useful) ? Should we develop a webform out of Qlikview (that be opened from Qlikview, with "something" to identify the selection operated in Qlikview)

Thanks a lot for you help !
Franck

OK,

I wasn't precise enough. To see the message please check "Pop-Up Message". When you (or anybody else) uses the bookmark, the popup-message will then appear. Without checked this option, hmm, nothing is shown when selecting the bookmark.

When you want to enter a comment to a specific chart or listbox or most of other objects, you can use the helptext. See (chart) properties --> caption tab--> "Help Text" in the lower right corner. After creating a text, a '?' is shown in the caption of the according object.

OK to use the help text of a chart as a container but :

- comment has to be relevant for a chart according to the context, whereas it's only 'generic' help

- end user won't have access to it, so it requires to define an input field which content entered would fill the help text of the chart... it would require a macro

- this way i may have a comment on a chart but it would'nt take into account the bookmark ?

I am not sure it is not easier and more reliable to create a button near each representation, this button would open a web form and get from Qlikview the ID of the representation and the name of the bookmark... Well, while writing this post, I realize that there's no easy way for comments...

Thank you very much for your help
