QlikView Reference Manual.pdf - QlikCommunity - QlikView

This dialog can be accessed from either the Document Properties: General or the Alerts dialog pages, both
under the Settings menu. It is used for setting the properties of either Help Pop-ups or Alert Pop-ups.
Through the controls of the dialog the following properties can be customized:
The Font button opens the standard Font (page 475) dialog, allowing the font settings for the pop-up text
to be changed.
The Background Color of the pop-up window can be defined as a solid color or a gradient via the Color
Area (page 412) dialog that opens when clicking the colored button.
The default Icon for the pop-up is a Question Icon for Help Pop-ups and a Warning Icon for Alert Pop-ups,
respectively. Choose between several other options or just set the display to No Icon from the spinner box.
Enter a time delay in the Timeout edit box to have pop-up windows automatically close after a set time
delay (This delay is measured in milliseconds. By setting the timeout to 0 the pop-up will stay on the screen
until the user clicks it away).
Check Sound in order to link a sound to the pop-up, see Linking Information to Field Values (page 385).
The edit box below should contain a valid path to a .wav sound file. This may be an external path (e.g. c:\mysound.wav)
or a path to a QlikView sound ( Internal Files (page 165)) already bundled with the program
(e.g. qmem:///sounds/qv_ok.wav).
Color Area
The Color Area dialog
Most colored surfaces in the QlikView layout can be formatted from the Color Area dialog. Specify either a
solid color covering the entire area or a color gradient effect. The color gradient options described below are
unavailable for some purposes and will then be grayed out in the dialog, e.g. for text colors.
Solid Color The basic option using a single uniform Base Color.
One Color Gradient This option introduces the use of varying Brightness to create a color gradient
effect.
Two Color Gradient A color gradient effect is created between the Base Color and a specified Second
Color.
Color(s) can be fixed or calculated as specified in the Base Color and Second Color groups.
