Visual Effects on the IE plugin

Hi to all you!

I got this problem. In the desktop (9.00 SR2) version, whenever i move the mouse cursor over a graph (ex.: lines) there is a visual effect that highlights the line i´m over (makes it thicker). However, when i´m using the same qvw, but this time on the IE plugin, those visual effects just aren´t shown. The chart stays still, instead of highlighting and making it thicker. I checked the Qlikview server version and it is the same version as the desktop version (which i´m using to develop my qvw). Do you have any ideas on what´s happening? thanks!

Hi,

I have updated my qlikview to newest version (9.00 SR3 7440).

With the plugin I have the same problem.

I have no idea what is wrong.

Is this a bug in qlikview IE plugin?

Nobody has an idea how this function works correct?

This sounds like a bug, because there is nowhere to configure this setting. Please report it to support@qlik.com

Hi,

I have found a solution.

I think problem is that the object was created in an old version of qlikview.

With updating some fileds in the diagramm qlikview is saving the object with new version and then the highlights function works also in IE plugin.

Hello.

Thanks for replying. I didn´t understand. Which fields should i update? Or u mean I need to erase my charts and redo them from scratch in the new version?

Thanks!

Hi,

the solution do not really work correct.

I think the problem is that the highlight function is only working correct on the register that was open when document was saved with qlikview client. On all other registers the highligths function with plugin does not work.

What should I do? Any ideas? Should I send a mail to support?

Hi,

we experience the same problem. We use an expression in the "Help text" (shown under the caption tab of the Object properties), to show an external pre-defined help text for some Objects.

On the Qlikview server (v8.5) or in a local Qlikview standalone client, this works fine. However, when we access the qlikview document using the Qlikview Plugin in Internet Explorer (v8.0) no help text is shown (except the minus sign "-"), all other help texts which are 'hard' defined (so plain text and no use of an expression in those objects) are shown correctly.

Please advice!

Many thanks,

Edwin

Hi,

Now a new version of qlikview is available. I have tested the highlight function in plugin.

With version 9.00.7469.8 SR4 the problem with not working highlight function in plugin is solved.

Maybe this information will help someone.
