topic Using js libraries to create 3d objects in QlikView

Using js libraries to create 3d objects

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 16:26:21 GMT

Hello community,

I just started out with extensions. After playing with some examples I tried to add js libraries to my extension to create 3d objects.

In this jsfiddle http://jsfiddle.net/y7rQh/1/ you can see what I'm trying to achieve.

I use the template extensions found here: http://community.qlik.com/docs/DOC-3742

With the javascript inserted in the template (and adding the js libraries) nothing happens. I guess I'm doing something wrong there.

Hope you can help me to get this running. I am assuming that it's no problem to display the 3d objects with those libraries.

The final goal is to create the objects (at first only cylinders) with selected data geometry in Qlikview and to be able to rotate the object with the mouse.

Thank you,

Thorsten

Anyone? A sample with external libraries would help.

Could you provide more information on what exactly happens? (screenshot could help a lot)

Make sure web view is on:

Make sure that you deploy the extension to the correct path. For QlikView Desktop this path is:

C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Objects

Note that on QlikView Server this path is different.

Also use Firebug to check for JavaScript errors: Firebug extension
