No Intellisense in Qlik Sense 2.1.1

Thu, 01 Oct 2015 12:21:46 GMT

Hi everyone,

My Intellisense on Qlik Sense Desktop is playing hide & seek, and currently it's winning - can anyone help me find it?

Working fine on my cloud, also on company-server no problem. The version is 2.1.1.

Does anyone know what might be the issue?

(I tried to run a repair, with no luck)

Thx.

Hi Jonathan,

Intellisense is "Intelligent Code Completion" - see picture below. I am missing that in my desktop, but i know it should be there and have seen so on a colleagues desktop edt. as well as in some tutorial videos by Michael Tarallo.

Thx.

Got it ! i love that feature and i miss it no longer ( it's also in QlikView).

I am definitely not sure.. does your installation of qlik sense desktop give you access to other new 2.1 features like data file upload and UI variables ? Perhaps a reinstall is needed. I am using 2.1.1 buld 22 (from about) version of the desktop.

Seems to.. Not quite sure where to find the UI variables though, but picture #2 shows a feature that is new as far as i know, and that is definitely working alright.

Oh you have to use the variables they are also great !

If you have not already try just pressing F5 to 'refresh the screen' if that helps.

If not, i would also suggest a reinstall to see if that helps. Back up your c:\users\<user>\my documents\qlik\sense\apps and .\extensions and .\content folders just in case. Hopefully a clean uninstall/reinstall will do the trick.

Another trick is to open a browser like chrome (while desktop is open) and go to http://localhost:4848/hub and see if rendering the app and load editor in chrome helps in any way.

Intellisense seems to be working for me in the functions editor for charts, as long as I wasn't in set analysis. Within the Data Load Editor it still shows limited function references.

Hope that helps.

‌René

can I ask what sort of PC you are using? I have a similar problem when using a Surface Pro, but not on a Sony Vaio (see my discussion thread Qlik Sense Auto Complete not working). I have had the problem for a while, and still have the issue with the latest version of Sense. I'm not sure if the issue is hardware or software related, or Qlik Sense or Windows.

i will be interested to hear if you have any success

Lenovo Thinkpad T440s - Windows 8.1 Enterprise

btw. no luck with the localhost port 4848 trick Jonathan. Clean re-install might be the last resort. Seems weird though

I have the same issue on my LENOVO YOGA W10Pro.

Have you tried to reinstall and does it resolve the issue ?

Still no joy for me. Other people working at my organisation have a similar problem if they are using a Surface Pro. I hope that Qlik are going to pick this issue up and resolve it soon.

Qlik sense is not yet supported for window10. That is forthcoming.

René (and others)

With my setup and hardware, the lack of AutoComplete seems to only be an issue with the desktop editor itself and with Google Chrome when using a browser.

To get around the issue you can use one of the other browsers: if you are using the desktop hub you can do this by opening the desktop first to get the hub running, and then open an alternate browser and going to the URL localhost:4848/hub

Hope that helps
