I am new in qlik view and don't have Qliksense and want to use beside another charts in my qvw files

how can I use this in qlikview?

Hi Hossein, both QlikView Personal and Qlik Sense are free for download. I encourage you to take a look at Sense if you can. In QlikView - you need the map extension object available here:

http://market.qlik.com/qlikview-svg-map.html

Take a look at it and feel free to post questions to the QlikView Developer forums if you have questions about the QlikView SVG map.

Thanks

Hi Hossein - here is what I have for you using QlikView.

I was able to get a SVG copy of Iran and edit the IDs of each province numbered 1 to 28.

I attached the .SVG file, sample data and .qvw file in this document - you need to copy it to:

C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Objects\svgMap

In QlikView Turn on WebView (I assume you have the SVG map installed)

Now with your data - you will need to update the .svg file (it is nothing more than XML) - and rename the values in the ID of the PATH to the corresponding data value in your data.

So for example:

</path>

will become "AZARBAIJAN E" - as in:

</path>

providing your data value is "AZARBAIJAN E"

Hope this helps.

ِDear Michael

It works nicely but the map you attached is old and some provinces are changed

I search the new svg file but when I change path ID with 1 or province name through the new svg file it doesn't work appropriately

I attach the svg file can you see it and help me to use this svg file instead of

thanks very much

Hello Hossein - using inkscape (Draw Freely. | Inkscape) and a text editor - I was able to visually view the SVG file. This type of file cannot be used, because the provinces are not polygonal shapes. Further inspection shows that the provinces are broken up by lines in the middle with an overall border around them. The path IDs need to be complete polygons - in order to fill them correctly.

Perhaps you can use inkscape to edit the one I sent you. It would take some work though.

Also maybe post a note in the QlikView Forums asking if someone knows of an updated SVG map for Iran, it could not hurt to try.

Stay well

Mike

Hi Michael

I solve my problem by correcting the command and set it to color Expression too so by selecting each of them the color is changed

I write in mesure :

=If(GetSelectedCount(cost)>=1,cost,

If(GetSelectedCount(sales)>=1,sales,

value

))

in color expression:

=If(GetSelectedCount(cost)>=1,'blue',

If(GetSelectedCount(sales)>=1,'purple',

'green'

))

and it works properly
