Enable-Disable an object depending on server environment

amit_shetty78 — Wed, 27 Nov 2013 10:54:09 GMT

Hi all,

I have a dashboard where I would like to have a Button/Text box with actions that will show as disabled when the qvw is published on a production server but when on a development server the button and its functionality should remain enabled.

Any ideas on how this can be done?

Thanks.

HI,

Could you use the ComputerName() function to identify which server the application is on? You could probably use it directly in the button visibility criteria, or set it as a variable in the load script for a different result, depending on where the app is reloaded.

Cheers,

Adam

Hi Adam,

Yes I think that will work. Will try that out.

Thanks for the help.

Best,

Amit.
