Image Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Representation |
The following alternatives are given: Text
Image When selecting this option QlikView will try to interpret each expression value as a reference to an image. The reference may be a path to an image file on disk (e.g. C:\Mypic.jpg) or inside the QlikView document (e.g. qmem://<Name>/<Peter>). If QlikView cannot interpret an expression value as a valid image reference, the value itself will be displayed. Info as Image

| Image Formatting | Only available when the image options have been selected above. This setting describes how QlikView formats the image to fit in the cell. There are four alternatives. No Stretch If this option is selected, the image will be shown as is, without any stretching. This may cause parts of the picture to be invisible or only part of the cell to be filled. Fill If this option is selected, the image will be stretched to fit the cell without bothering about keeping the aspect ratio of the image. Keep Aspect If this option is selected, the image will be stretched as far as possible to fill the cell while keeping the aspect ratio. This typically results in areas either on both sides of or above and below which are not filled by the image. Fill with Aspect If this option is selected, the image will be stretched to fill the cell in both directions while keeping the aspect ratio. This typically results in cropping of the image in one direction. |
| Hide Text When Image Missing | If this option is selected, QlikView will not display the field value text if interpretation as an image reference fails for some reason. The cell will then be left blank. |
| Selection Style Override | When images are shown instead of text it may be necessary to use another selection style than the document default so that the logical state of the field values remains visible. Use the drop-down list under Selection Style Override to select a suitable selection style, e.g. Corner Tag. |

| Default Search Mode | This setting specifies the initial default search mode to be used in text searches. The mode can always be changed on the fly by typing * or ~ as part of the search string. The following alternatives are available: <use default> The default as specified under User Preferences applies. Use Wildcard Search The initial search string will be two wildcards with the cursor between them to facilitate a wildcard search. Use Fuzzy Search The initial search string will be a tilde (~) to denote a fuzzy search. Use Normal Search No additional characters will be added to the search string. Without wildcards, a Normal Search will be made. |
