Instant Single Selection

A double click/tap on a dynamic object (Marker, Polygon, Line, Cluster, Sphere, Legend segment... ) causes an instant single selection.
The double click speed can be configured in the Expert Settings.

If only one item is left, selecting it again will cause a "Clear" of all selections (like in QlikView). (Note, that Clustermarkers usually contain several Markers - a "Clear" will only be triggered, if actually only one Marker is left.)

 Ctrl  +  Shift  + click

Single Selection

When pressing  Ctrl  +  Shift  the single selection mode is activated and you can single click any number of objects to select them, when releasing the keys.
If only one item is left, selecting it again will cause a "Clear" of all selections (like in QlikView). (Note, that Clustermarkers usually contain several Markers - a "Clear" will only be triggered, if actually only one Marker is left.)

Open PopUps

For items like Markers, Polygons, Lines or Spheres, appropriate PopUps can be defined. With a single cick (or tap) on the item, the PopUp can be opened. If there is something to click on in the object, the cursor will change from 000_MouseCursor to a pointer 000_MousePointer .
To close the PopUp click on the same item again or use the gray 000_closePopUp in the upper right corner of the PopUp. By clicking on an other item, the first PopUp will be closed and the PopUp of the other item will appear.
The map section in the object will always adjust automatically for an optimal view.

Hint: If there are Charts configured in the PopUps, there can be selections made too. With pie or doughnut charts by clicking on the pieces and with bar and line charts by dragging.

Simple zoom

To simply zoom in and out of the object either the mouse wheel, a double click/tab or the Zoombuttons can be used. It changes the zoom level gradually.
The double click only works, if the cursor is positioned on the background somewhere in the object. Scrolling works anywhere in the object.

 F5  key

Refresh

The refresh feature initiates a reload of the application, just like opening it again. Manually added Spheres disappear, selections in QlikView will stay.

Same as 000_AktualisierenF5 in QlikView or the 111_M_refresh button in the Touchscreen Menu.
