Solved: Button color should change when selected - Qlik Community

sridhar_sigired · ‎2015-08-11

Hello,

Can anyone please help me to change the color of button when we select it.

Button color is blue right now, where as when we select it should change to green color.

Thanks.

Follow this:

1. Take Three Buttons

1. First

2. Second

3. Third

2. Take one Variable like "vClor" and assign 0 to it.

3. Now on First button set below action on "Set Variable"

=if(vColor=1 or vColor =2,0,0)

them First button only write below expression under Calculated with in Base color area:

=if(vColor=1 or vColor =2,0,0)

4. follow this step for Second and Third Button

Second Button:

=if(vColor=0 or vColor =2,1,1)

if(vColor=1,Green(), Blue())

Third Button

=if(vColor=1 or vColor =0,2,2)

if(vColor=2,Green(), Blue())

Use calculated Color for button color. Use the same variable use in the button action to control its color

If(vVar = 1, ActiveColor, DeactiveColor)

where vVar is button's action

You need to set an extra variable-value by clicking from this button, for example vColor to 0 or 1, maybe in this way:

set variable action

= if($(vColor) = 0, 1, 0)

button-color:

= if($(vColor) = 0, blue(), green())

Hi Sridhar

PFA Qlikview, You have to make you variables and just do some magic. Hope this qvw helps you

I have created variable vColor with 0 value and

set variable action as

= if($(vColor) = 0, 1, 0)

button calculated color as

= if($(vColor) = 0, blue(), green())

But it is not working. Any problem in above lines?

Is there an initial value in vColor? If vColor is null neither expression will be valid and they will both be ignored.

Initialise vColor to 0 or 1 using the variable overview or an input box.

Please set a variable to change the color and set it in calculated section under backgroud color:

if(vChangeColor=1,RGB(0,255,0),RGB(0,0,255))

The remark from jontydkpi is right - you need to initialise this variable (to make another loop within the expressions to fetch this case is possible but not really useful - once set to 0 or 1 and it worked).
