Creating custom Marker Icons using local image files
If using QlikView Desktop
You can use marker icons instead of bubbles when plotting points on a map by modifying the expression for the “Marker Icon” in the “Marker Properties” section. For example:
=if([Venue Type] = 'Bar/Restaurant', 'restaurant.png',
if([Venue Type] = 'Hotel/Convention Center', 'hotel.jpg',
if([Venue Type] = 'Sports Arena/Catering', 'football.jpg',
'question_mark.jpg')))
The list of available markers can be found in:
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Objects\QlikMaps_For_MQ_Points
If you need a custom marker icon, simply add another image file to the above directory.
