Maximise text object through a 'Set Variable' Action

I have a text object which i would want to be maximised on clicking the text object.  How can i implement this through the Actions properties with a variable say named 'vMaxPlot'.

Regards

Hi there,

You could create a variable (for example v_Show)

On the action tab of the text object you wish to maximise - select the Set Variable action and set the value of this variable to 1

Clone the text object and again on the action tab, select the Set Variable action and set it to 0

On both of these text objects set the layout to conditional based on that variable.  For example, the minimised would be v_Show = 0 and the maximised would be v_Show = 1.

See the attached example.  I have created a variable called v_Show and set its value on both of the text objects.

Hope this helps

You can use a macro to maximize/restore a sheet object - or you can use two objects. Clone the first and maximize  it. Then use conditional show based on vMaxPlot to display one or the other.

Hi Jonathan

Thank you very much for your response.  May be my question is not clear.  What i want is if i click on the Text Object, it will increase in size to maximum.  If i click the Text Object again, it will get minimised.

May be using qv feature, like:

Enable Caption (Caption tab->Show Caption) for the text object and check 'Allow Maximize', 'Allow Minimize'. User could maximize/minimize it at will - and it's object feature without any hassle.

What i want to achieve is illustrated in the QV Predictive analysis demo attached.  If one clicks the decision tree under the 'Risk of Mortality Plots' it gets maximised and on a second click it gets minimised
