In-Depth Information
The previous image does feature quite thick borders. In the
interest of reducing non-data pixels, you will probably want to
use a more minimalistic background in your own designs.
When setting up a background image, either at the
Document Properties
or
Sheet
Properties
level, it is important to configure the following settings:
•
Image Formatting
should be set to
No Stretch
•
Horizontal
should be set to
Left
•
Vertical
should be set to
Top
•
Background Color
should be set to a color that matches the background
color of the image so that the edges of the background image blend in with
the rest of the background
QlikView Developer Toolkit
Creating a background image can be done using an image
editor such as Photoshop. If you do not have access to an image
editor, or if you're not really artistically inclined, QlikView
installation has the Developer Toolkit included. This toolkit
can be found in the folder
C:\Program Files\QlikView\
Examples\Developer Toolkit
and includes around 100
predefined backgrounds to use in your QlikView documents.
