The image formats JPG, PNG and TIF are allowed.Īlternatively, you can use the Format tab to change the icon to a custom image by first clicking the Icon button and then selecting Add own icon… from the pop-up menu that appears.

Instead of the default icon, you can now use any other image.

Click the object with your right mouse button and select Change Image … from the context menu.The icons displayed in MAXMaps for MAXQDA object such as codes or documents, are the standard MAXQDA icons – however, these can be exchanged against another imported image, as follows: Alternatively, the option is also available in the context menu for the group. The group can be split up by clicking on the group and then clicking Ungroup objects in the Start tab. A change of object properties in the Properties window has the same effect on all objects in the group, including changes in the size. The objects of a group can’t be selected individually, but are always selected together. Alternatively, the option is also available after right-clicking on one of the selected objects in the context menu. In the Start tab, click Group Objects, your selection will become a fixed group.In the same way, the selection can also be undone for individual objects. As an alternative, you can also select individual objects to be grouped by clicking them one by one while pressing the Shift⇧ key. To do this you first have to drag a frame around the objects with the mouse.Objects can be grouped so that their distances remain constant. Selected formatting always applies to the entire text. The Format tab can be used to adjust the formatting of the text. Whether the subcodes are included in the code search or not can be recognized in the context menu itself (by the marked or unmarked checkbox).Tip: Double-clicking on the symbol of a free object directly opens the edit field for entering and editing a text. Now all subcodes of the two activated codes are taken into account in the search for overlaps. In the example, it would be sufficient to only activate the two upper codes and choose the Include subcodes option. To do this, select the Include subcodes option in the context menu. MAXQDA now offers the convenient option including subcodes in a code search. This approach would, however, be very cumbersome, especially if you are dealing with still deeper code hierarchies or a large number of subcodes. If you now want to assemble all the coded document locations that have been assigned a subcode of “success criteria” as well as any subcode of “ideal projection”, you could use the Complex Coding Query to search for overlaps between the two subcodes. Imagine you have defined the following codes: The program offers an easy way to make use of the hierarchical structure.

A hierarchical system of codes can be constructed with MAXQDA.
