Copying an object not possible - why?

datanibbler — Wed, 18 Sep 2013 09:18:42 GMT

Hi,

I have a problem: In one QlikView_app (open in the Client), I cannot copy an object - I wanted to paste it onto every sheet as a "linked object" so that the triggers will be the same.

However, no matter how often I right-click the object and copy it to the clipboard, when I open another sheet the two submenu_points "copy" and "copy linked" are inactive.

Can anyone help me there?

Thanks a lot!

Best regards,

DataNibbler

Try it with Ctrl + c and Ctrl + v to paste the object

Hi Friedrich,

Go to Sheet Properties -> Security -> Copy/Clone Sheet Objects is checked or not.

To enable copying object's on all the sheet's check "Apply on All Sheets" and click Apply button.

Thanks...

Sounds like security issues, try this:

Settings -> Document properties --> Security --> Admin Override Security

Hi,

Go to Sheet Properties -> Security -> Copy/Clone Sheet Objects is checked or not.

and also check whether Allow Copy/Clone option is check in object property layout tab.

Right click on object which your copying -> Property-> Layout-> Options -> Check Allow Copy/Clone

Hope it helps you

Hi,

Go to Document properties->Sheets->properties->Security->Tick the option Copy/clone and click ok button and also right click in th chart Properties->Layout->Select copy and clone option

If you are copying in some other sheet then pls check that sheet properties copy/clone option is enabled

Hi,

thanks for all the quick answers!

It seems Ori Tal's tip worked (it was the first one I tried out 😉

This is then solved.
