Hello Qlik Users!I’m always amazed at what our users create using Qlik products. Today’s Featured Content Friday is no exception. He’s a long-time user (about 20 years) and holds the Owner, CEO, and Consultant titles for his own company.Robert of Svebeck Consulting AB!Robert says his favorite thing about Qlik is:The app Robert created is so unique. It shares a visual story.I’ll let Robert tell you in his own words about his creation:“The story behind this chart started with me talking to Shirajul Kabir Rab who I collaborate with a lot on Data On The Rocks and Data On The Earth.We were talking about trying to find new ways to visualize data, when the idea of visualizing data in a simple landscape came to us.Since I have been investigating a lot on the Map Object I realised that it is possible to make a Mock-Up chart using the map object to try the idea out.In parallel to this I also had an idea to make a chart that would be a new kind of network chart, or like a combination of the Scatter chart and a Sankey chart, basically trying to find a way to visualize how one “dot” in the scatter is connected to another “dot” in the scatter. The more ways a dot is connected to another dot, the more lines connects them. I realised that it was possible to make this chart, again as a Mock-Up, using the map chart.Since the result of this new kind of chart made the object look like birds, I decided to combine this new chart (that I named Seagull Chart) with the idea of a Landscape chart, and this is the result.In this example, the code is not really re-usable in a simple way for a business application – and should be seen rather as inspiration for new ways of displaying data.I decided to see the birds as existing customers where the 3 dots that shape the bird represents 3 months of sales. The number of lines between the dots represents how diverse the customer is buying in a scale from 1-3, meaning 3 lines = they buy all kinds of material and 1=they buy as limited amount of material.The idea of the birds flying in the sky, just like in a scatter chart their position (where they fly) are also carrying a purpose, the closer to the sun, or the higher up, the better “Customers”.To add more features to the landscape I added a flower object in the bottom which would represent prospects.The Landscape concept can be applied also to other kind of data (not just Sales), such as this: flowers are new projects, birds are “employees”, and active projects are perhaps trees in the landscape, and employees who are working on a project are “circulating” around that tree. It can become anything, the concept is really interesting. Was also thinking about other kinds of landscapes, with rivers and mountains. It can visualise many cool things.The script is very simple, and I am just generating random data to fit the different layers in the map-object.Not sure how much is needed to explain the map object, as this is pretty self explained for those who know how the map object works.And the point of this app is not to explain How this is done, rather inspire chart developers to do something new.”You can find Robert’s original post on LinkedIn:Landscape Chart**The information in this post is provided as-is and to be used at your own discretion. Depending on the tool(s) used, customization(s), and/or other factors ongoing support may not be provided by Qlik Support.Robert also supplied the app and images. You can find the attachments below. Take a look and play around. Hopefully, it will inspire you as well!Thank you@RSvebeckfor sharing your landscape chart with us!Do you want to be spotlighted in a future post?

Hello Qlik Users!
If you are on the Qlik Sense App Development forum or the QlikView App Dev forum, you might see some very seasoned developers writing line after line of code. You might be asking yourself, “what does all this mean!?” It can look intimidating.
One of the possibilities, is that the code is for Set Analysis.
Set analysis gives you a way to define a set or a group of values that is independent of any selections. It is commonly used for making comparisons (e.g. this year vs last year). With set analysis, you use set expressions to analyze data.
Set expressions are how you define the field values. A set expression must be used in an aggregation function (like sum) and it must be enclosed by braces, {}. The expression consists of operators, identifiers and modifiers.
Here are some suggestions on how to get started with Set Analysis and Set Expressions:
Keep it simple.
Play around with examples provided on Qlik Help*. Get familiar with the syntax and the structure of the expressions.
Take a self-paced class on our Learning portal.
We offer a few classes on set expressions and set analysis:
Introduction to Set Expressions
Advanced Set Expressions
Leveraging Set Analysis
Review our video resources.
There are so many videos available on Set Analysis. Some of the videos are a little bit older, but they are still relevant. Here are a couple I recommend:
Do More with Qlik Webinar Series – Set Analysis
Qlik Sense in 60 – Set Analysis
Search the Qlik Community.
There is so much content that has been created in the form of articles, Help documentation, Community posts and documents, YouTube videos, etc. One search will search all the available platforms so you do not have to scour the internet.
Ask your peers for help.
Use our Qlik Community forums (Qlik Sense App Development and QlikView App Dev) to get help from your peers. I love promoting our Community’s development resources. The developers out on Qlik Community are brilliant and eager to help.
Try out the Set Analysis Wizard for QlikView**
The Set Analysis Wizard for QlikView is not a Qlik tool but was created by an employee. It is also something we like to use in Qlik Support. Even though it says for QlikView, it still applies to Qlik Sense.
I hope these resources help you on your Set Analysis journey. If you have any suggestions or recommendations on materials that helped you learn Set Analysis, post them in the comments below.
Kind regards,
Qlik Digital Support

Hello Qlik Users!It’s our first Featured Content Friday of 2021!We are holding on to the holiday spirit a bit longer with this entry bySergey of Qurious Solutions!Sergey is a principal consultant and has been working with Qlik products for an incredible 12 years. When asked what his favorite thing about Qlik is, Sergey responded:Check out Sergey's creation:A Christmas Tree* Sergey created this visualization with Qlik Sense. He made great use of the scatter plot chart to create the tree and the animator extension in the Qlik Dashboard bundle to make it flicker! He also provided the script in his post so you can create your own.Our whole team was impressed with this visualization. And if points were given, Sergey would get more for creating a GIF (we love GIFs, hint, hint)! 😉*The information in this post is provided as-is and to be used at own discretion.
