In-Depth Information
Setting a new default color map does not overwrite the color settings
on objects that were already created. Those settings would need to
be updated manually. In
Chapter 13
,
More on Visual Design and User
Experience
, we will look at how we can use themes to override the entire
look of a QlikView document, including styles that were set manually.
As we only want to apply the color scheme to this document, we will be updating
the
Document Default
color map by following these steps:
1.
Click on the
Update
button corresponding to
Document Default
.
2.
Click on
OK
to close the
Advanced Color Map
dialog.
3.
Click on
OK
to close the
Chart Properties
dialog.
The default color map used by the document has been set and it will be
automatically applied to all future charts we create.
Summary
We've come to the end of the chapter, in which we learned to set document, sheet,
and object properties. We've also learned how to add a background to aid the
frontend layout, and also to apply a corporate identity to our document and set a
default color map.
We learned how to create and use different objects, such as the listbox, the Current
Selections Box, the Multi Box, and the Bookmark Object.
After preparing and setting the style used by the document, we can now continue
to create and use the different data visualization objects available in QlikView. In the
next chapter, we will look at building the charts and tables which will be used for
dashboards, analysis, and reports.
