Customizing autoCalendar when using Data Manager

vegard_bakke — Fri, 12 Jan 2018 14:12:40 GMT

Hi all,

I'm in a project where we have a user groups that the Data Manager is just perfect for. Therefore, we'd like to continue using Data Manager, with the auto-generated section.

The autoCalendar is good, but it is all in English, and it contains way more forms than we need, and therefore clutters the field selectors with many repetitive unused fields for all of our date fields.

Question

Is there a way to customize the autogenerated calendar? Either though the UI, or by LOAD script?

I can declare my own calendar in a new section. But I have trouble deriving the date fields from my own calendar, because the autoCalendar seems to override mine.

Anyone tried anything like this?

Has anyone found out where the template for the autocalendar is stored?

That file might be possible to customize....?

Found the template for the autoCalendar. Tried some minor changes without any effect.

Has anyone played with the:

C:\Program files\Qlik\Sense\Client\assets\hldm\models\specifications\CalendarSpec.json ?

Hi Vegard_bakke,

I'm dealing with the same topic. The automatic autoCalendar is overriding the mine.

Finally, did you find a solution for that?

Thanks
