Executes actions when this event is triggered after clicking on a query element.

Syntax

&ItemClickData.{ Axis | Context | Filters | Name | Value }

When the event is triggered, its parameters are queried in the "ItemClickData" property. It returns an SDT with the following data:

Axis in which it is located.
Context is a collection of elements that provide information on all the elements included in the query with the values related to the clicked-on value.
- For a plain table, it's a list of all the elements included in the query with the values for the row corresponding to the clicked-on cell (including hidden elements).
- For a pivot table, clicking on a cell selects several tuples of the query result (all those that contributed to the value of this cell). The related values are, for each element in the query, the different values included in said tuples.
Filters is a collection of elements included in the pages with the list of values selected (only valid for Pivot tables).
Name of the element that was clicked on.
Value. The value contained in the clicked-on cell.

Example

In this example, code is added to the event so that clicking on the Client Nr element opens a pop-up window showing the element name, value, and context.

Event QueryClients.ItemClick
    &StrContext = &ItemClickData.Context.ToJson() //&StrContext is a VarChar/LongVarChar/Character type variable
    &window.Object = PopupDialog.Create(&ItemClickData.Name,
                                        &ItemClickData.Value,
                                        &StrContext)
    &window.Width  = 400
    &window.Height = 300
    &window.Open()
EndEvent

Chart

You can execute the ItemClick event in:

Data (columns in a Column Chart, points in a Line Chart, etc.)
Labels

Maps

Since GeneXus 17 Upgrade 8 you can execute the ItemClick Event in:

Region: When the Choropleth type map is used.
Bubble: When the Bubble type map is used with both data types (GeoPoint and ISO code 3166).

In both cases, the Raise ItemClick event property should be set to True. You can enable it only for an element whose attribute has the Type property set to Datum.

Scope

Output type: Table, PivotTable, Chart, Map.
