Dimension/Measure names in Pixel Perfect

Hi All

Could someone let me know how to get the actual column names in group headers when I right-click and drag on the fields. At the moment, the measures are being displayed as the underlying expressions and the dimensions are being displayed as the FieldName_? where ? is a number depending on how many times that fields appears in levels.

Thanks

Ryk

Hi @ryk_budzynski

What you are describing seems to "work as designed". If field is a master item (master dimension or measure) it is represented by Id, If it is hardcoded measure it will be shown as expression or field as field name + number of iteretions field exists in other objects, levels etc.

This is all working as designed.

If I understand your question well i think you will not be able to achieve what you want, or am I missing something?

Thanks

Lech

Hi Lech

I have a straight table in my app which I'm bringing into Pixel Perfect. So from your post, in order to get the column headers displayed as per the app, I will have to add them manually as labels?

Thanks

in short - yes,

but how about following simple tutorials available in help documentation? https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/September2020/Content/NPrinting/PixelPerfectReports/Simple-PP-Report.htm#anchor-6
