Help with text object

[#1]

Hello, I am new to qlikview and would like some assistance with a text object.

Is it possible to click on a text box and it bring up a table of detail ?

Any help appreciated!

Hi,

Right click on your text box Properties --> Layout --> In Layer select top.

or you can play with custom +1, +2 e.t.c

Yes possible. Set an action to text object to set a value to a variable, and use this variable value as condition of the detailed chart display. Like in attached sample:

Hi

Yes you can, follow these steps:

• Create the text box with whatever content you need
• Click on Settings | Variable Overview and create a variable (say vState1) and set the value to 0
• Add an action to the text box (External | Set Variable), enter vState1 in the variable box and the expression =If(vState1=1, 0, 1)
• Create the chart/table with the detail view.
• Go to Properties | Layout for the chart and in the Show box click Consitional and enter the expression =vState1 = 1.
• The chart will disappear (be hidden) if vState <> 1. Click the text box to set vState1 to 1 (and show the chart). Click the text box again to hide the chart.
