Documentation on All formatting codes (example: '<S3>' , '<W2'>)

 Hello everyone,

I'm looking for a single place to find all the valid formatting codes (like '<S3>') used in QlikView (and perhaps QlikSense as well).   

 

I've found many of these mentioned on these forums, but I can't find a single source listing all of the codes and their purposes.

Anyone know where I can find the magic list?

Thank you!

Where do I find the QV reference manual?

Also, I'm not just looking for Line style.  Also Font Styles, any styling that could be applied to bar charts,  basically all styles.  In one place.  Like a poster I can print out and have as reference on my desk

I found the reference manual, but in searching for "line style" this is the only pertinent info that appears:

The text does not include a full list of valid symbols, just a few examples

Only applicable on line, combo and radar charts. Click on Line Style in order
to enter an attribute expression for calculating the line style for the line or line
segment associated with the data point. The relative width of the line can be
controlled by including a tag <Wn> where n is a multiplying factor to be
applied on the default line width of the chart. The number n must be a real
number between 0.5 and 8. Example: <W2.5>. The style of the line can be controlled
by including a tag <Sn> where n is an integer between 1 and 4 indicating
the style to be used (1=continuous, 2= dashed, 3=dotted,
4=dashed/dotted). Example: <S3>. The <Wn> and <Sn> tags can be freely combined,
but only the first occurrence of each counts. The tags must be enclosed
by single quotations.

Text Format
Click on Text Format in order to enter an attribute expression for calculating
the font style for text associated with the data point. The expression used as
text format expression should return a string containing a '<B>' for bold text,
'<I>' for Italic text and/or '<U>' for underlined text

I saw these as well after finding the reference manual.  Thanks for referencing them.

 

Are these the only style tags that are used in QlikView, or are there others not documented in the Reference Manual?

So far we have <S> and <W> for line style, and <B>, <I>, and <U> for font style.

Is there a tag method to define a font size ?
