Restrict user to change tables column width

Mon, 12 Mar 2012 13:04:42 GMT

Dear All,
How to restrict user to change the width of columns mentioned in Straight/Pivot Table?
Have already tried un-checked option for Allow Size/Allow Pivot/Allow Drag & Drop.

Any idea friends how to restrict the width change in table ?

Thanks,
Kumar

Hi Kumar,

That should do if you only want to prevent the users to modify that chart, provided they are not accessing as ADMIN (if you are using section access). Check as well that in the sheet properties, Security tab, Move/Size Sheet Objects is unchecked, but this will affect all objects within the active sheet.

In addition, what version of QlikView are you using?

Hope that helps.

Miguel

Hi Miguel,

Move/Size Sheet property is already unchecked.
Not using the section access at this moment and I am using Qv 11

Would you suggest any workaround where we can restrict the user to play with columns width.,

Thanks,

Kumar

Hi Kumar,

Go to the Settings menu, Document Properties, Security, and make sure that "Admin overrides security" is unchecked. It's working fine in my laptop: if I uncheck Allow Move/Size in the sheet properties, I cannot resize column width.

Hope that helps.
