how to BUNDLE additional SOUNDS into a QVW doc. and use them?

[ivan_will]

Hi all,

I have an idea to bundle up to 10 sounds in a qvw. and then use them in the Macro Module / like - ActiveDocument.PlaySound "qmem://<bundled>/sound/tada.wav>"

Is it possible and how to do that !

Many thanks in advance!

That works !!!!!!!!!!!

in the script:

Sound:

LOAD * INLINE [

mainsound,dir,name

tada.wav,C:\Windows\Media\, tadato

];

Bundle load mainsound,dir&mainsound Resident Sound;

in the macro module:

sub PlaySound

ActiveDocument.PlaySound "qmem://mainsound/tada.wav"

end sub

Does it work with Actions, since macros will stop working in the near future!

Fernando, have you seen a statement about the future of macros?

Yep, I actually heard a statement about the future of macros in a official QlikTech's presentation late 2011.

You know that QlikTech never encouraged the use of macros and the latest versions came with "Actions" that make most of things we're used to do with macros.

They never said when it will happen, but that it's comming in the near future.

By the way, I´m using the Action "Show Info" to play sounds loaded with "INFO LOAD". But It launches an external player, in my case Winamp.

Regards,

Fernando
