Fit Zoom To window Extension (Auto resize of the dashboard according to screen)

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 16:26:21 GMT

Hi everyone.. I have created few apps but none of the dashboard is fitting to the screen size of the desktop when i upload it onto the server, even the dashboard is not fitting to the desktop screen in webview mode.

than i came across the extension concepts as i cant change the design of the dashboards now.

so please if you could help me with this extension than i can deploy all the apps developed so far onto the server. otherwise i have to redisgn every dashboard..

so, i found zoomtofit qar file on the community which works for auto adjust the size of the dashboard

https://community.qlik.com/thread/58941http://

I have installed fitzoomtowindow extension and I am able to see that in Active Extensions(Document Properties-->extensions-->Active Extensions)

but it is not working on my app. I mean, when i try to see the app in webview mode on QV desktop, I am unable to see any difference,, still my dashboard is not in sync with the screen.. could you please what are the other possible mistakes that i have done..

and i thinking of one possible reason is, i am unable to see extension zoomtofit extension in extension object when i see in New sheet object window in webview mode.. i did refresh it but i cant solve my problem..

i hope, i am clear with my problem, please ask me, if i need to explain anymore

Thanks

Ganesh

Hi,

Trigger the below macro in

Sub FitZoomToWindow

ActiveDocument.GetApplication.WaitForIdle

ActiveDocument.ActiveSheet.FItZoomToWindow

End Sub

Settings -> Document Properties -> Triggers -> On open -> Add Action -> Add -> External -> Run Macro -> Give Macro Name (FitZoomToWindow)

Before that paste the above macro code in the Edit Module window (Ctrl + M).

For some other sample macros check the link below

Document extensions are not included into that list "Extension Objects", they are added to the document using Document Properties.

Please use your browser debugger (usually F12) if the console is reporting any errors.

I don´t think know how use F12 using webview.

When I need to debug a extension I publish to a server, and point my browser to Access Point

Hi clever,

I have uploaded the file onto the server and also copied the contents of extension by creating a folder at the location

C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Document

and it still didnt work for me, so i did browser debugging, in the console i am getting this error.. could you tell me how to fix it

'webkitURL' is deprecated. Please use 'URL' instead.

Thanks

You have to make a decision, you can´t have both

If you gonna use IE Plugin you have to use macros

If you gonna use Webview/Ajax you have to use extension
