Dynamically change a bar chart background

Hi

I am a newbie!

I am using Version 11.00.11282.0

I am trying to dynamically change the background image (.jpg) of a bar chart - depending on the selection. ie Country Flags.

when I select 'Dynamic Image' the expresssion entry sheet pops up - but I have no idea what or how I should create the script within this box.

I cant find this detailed anywhere.

Any ideas please?

Thanks

As I've said,

You have to connect the field Club and the field [Home Team].

For example, just rename Club into [Home Team] (if there are the same values):

Info Load

Club as [Home Team],

Logo

FROM

Clublogo.csv

(txt, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, delimiter is ',', msq);

Create a table of Countries and Flag Graphics:

Country, FlagGraphic

USA, c:\Flag\usa.png

Canada, c:\flag\canada.png

eitc, etc

in the expression box, put: =FlagGraphic

Sorry - please bear with me!!

Do I create a table externally (.xls, .csv etc) or within Qlikview (New Sheet Object etc..)

Heres the script..

//Load Logos

Logos:

LOAD Club,

     Logo

FROM

Clublogo.csv

(txt, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, delimiter is ',', msq);

Heres the clublogo.csv data..

clublogo.png

Heres the chart properties

First, you do regular load instead of info LOAD.

Second, you should use =info(Club) as a dynamic image.

Why do you completely avoid the word 'info' ?

upd:

You could do it without info as you're trying.

Where did you type your expression =Logo ?

Do I need an info select as well as an info load statment in the script?

//Load Logos

Logos:

Info Load * FROM

Clublogo.csv

(txt, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, delimiter is ',', msq);

;

No, just select one Club value from list box.

Seems everything's right. What's not working ?
