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.
