Removing from server object pane

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hi,

We are using QV10 and IE plugin as the client. Users are allowed to develope their own objects and bookmarks and then share them. The probloem now is that once they create an object they can no longer remove it from the server object pane (collaboration).

Overtime they end up with a number of objects that they don't need and they have to scroll through them to find the ones that they do need. When I right click on the object inside server object pane I get the "remove" option in the menu but clicking it only removes the object from the sheet and not from the pane. Is this a bug in QV10 or am I missing something?

Hmm that's strange. But you can probably remove the objects by Selecting the drop-down icon on the IE Plugin toolbar --> Server Objects --> Remove. I'm not sure, but I think you have to unshare that object first.

Thanks for your reply. I did as you suggested. The objects I want to remove are not shared. I go to IE Plugin Tollbar--> server objects and then I select the ones I want to remove and then I remove them. They get removed from the dialog box but if I close and then reopen it I see the same ones back on the list again. I'm not sure what is going on.

Aha! It's a bug in the initial release of 10 that was fixed with SR1 (bug ID# 29743).

Oh thanks. I guess we need to upgrade!

So we upgraded to QlikView 10 SR1 and we are still facing the same problem. It does say in the release notes that it is fixed but it's not at least on ours. The objects do get removed from the sheet but they don't get removed from the server object pane itself. Anybody else is facing this same problem?

Yes, we are having the same problem: can't remove the objects that I've created on the shared tab. They reappear every time.

Well, as a temporary measure you can always take ownership of the objects via the QEMC and remove them there. But if SR1 did not fix a bug that it was supposed to, that is definitely an issue that should be reported to support (support@qlik.com).

Strangely, after a week past our upgrade to SR1, we are now able to remove objects from the server object pane. I don't know what would cause a delay like this but it's now working (well, at least for the few users that have tried).

Are these new objects that you are now able to remove, or old ones? Maybe the fix only applies to objects created after the SR1 upgrade...

No they are not just the new objects. I actually got a couple of other users to try and remove the objects but the problem still exists for them even for the new objects. So some of us can remove now and some of us can't! I'll report the issue to support, maybe they can help. Thanks for your input though.

Ok issue resolved. We had not upgraded ieplugin after we upgraded the server to SR1. We uninstalled the old plugin and reinstalled the new one and now all users are able to remove objects.

Is there a possibility to do the same thing using macros?
Thanks for your reply!
