Working with listboxes
Currently, our QlikView document contains the following listboxes in the
Dashboard
sheet:
•
Carrier's Operating Region
•
Carrier Group
•
Flight Type
•
Aircraft Group
•
Year
•
Quarter
•
Month
Let's see how we can add listboxes and change their properties.
Adding listboxes
Lets add another listbox representing the
Carrier Name
field by right-clicking on
the worksheet and selecting
Properties…
(or by pressing
Ctrl
+
Alt
+
S
, which is the
shortcut for the
Settings
|
Sheet Properties
menu command). Next, open the
Fields
tab, locate the
Carrier Name
field under the
Available Fields
list, and click on
Add >
to add it as a new listbox.

To add an object to a worksheet, there are three basic
methods: using the menu, using the toolbar, or using the
pop-up menu:
Menu
: By selecting
Layout | New Sheet Object
Toolbar
: By using the
design
toolbar
Pop-up
: By right-clicking on a blank space within the
worksheet and choosing the desired object from the
New Sheet Object
submenu
The examples throughout this topic will use a different
method each time, but of course you are free to choose
your preferred method.
