CTRL+SHIFT and reports

Thu, 10 Jul 2014 10:06:29 GMT

Hello there,

I have a bar char that I am trying to resize using the the Ctrl+Shift "tool" in Qlikview.

This chart is also added to a report I created.

The thing is: When I am on edition mode this works properly and I can change the size of the chart element like I want to.

But when I look at the print preview of my report, the size of the chart is completely different and the formatting of everything is completely different.

Is this a known issue on Qlikview? Is there a way around this?

Thank you!

Hi,

Try to add object again in your report after you re-size and check if that help you.

Dear Marques,

Some features are not availables in the QlikView such as other trade mark software have.

Best solution is that you do it manually.

Kind regards,

Hi,

What version of qlik you are on?

Can you share a sample to reproduce the issue.

So I have here a few print screens to help.

Image one: Edition mode - Here is in the edition mode, after I change the size of the bar chart with the help of ctrl+shift.

Image two: report editor - here we see that the size of the chart is completely different than before, but the real problem (for me) comes next.

Image three: report in print preview - the chart occupies almost the entire space of the page and it is on the top of the description of each bar.

I could live with a char bigger or smaller, but I need to show these entire descriptions.

Image one - Edition mode

Image two - report editor

Image three - report in print preview

Version: 11.00.11154.0.

The excel file is where the data is loaded from.

You might need to change the location of the file on the script to load the sample.

Thank you!

Hi,

It just worked fine might be you need to upgrade to 11.2 sr7.

I tried with 11.2 sr6 and it worked.

look at the attached image.

It is not 100% fine, because if you look closely in the Print Preview picture, the bars of the chart are not shown completely.

In the example I sent I already had made adjustments with the crtl+shift.

It can be a version issue, but the results with version 11.2 aren't also 100% correct.

HI,

Try by adjusting Page size.

To be fair reporting part of Qlik is not that strong.

You can try with third part tool like NPrinting.
