Is it possible to remove 'Select All' from right click list

Wed, 16 Dec 2015 15:08:42 GMT

Is it possible to remove just the option to "select all" from the right click list. I would like to do this to all the documents .

We are using the Ajax client and Qlikview version 11.2.12

I know you can do this in the OEM client (QlikView embedded in other applications and managed as the ocx it really is using .NET code), but I think there is no configuration switch to control what items are listed in the rightmousebutton menu of the Ajax client.

You could try to modify the AJAX client itself (a square block of 60+ lines by 677000 characters of javascript code without whitespace) but that won't be easy and may be "against regulations"...

Good luck,

Peter

I am not aware of a method to do this. Is there a particular reason you want to remove the functionality?

can the user only make one selection from a list or can they make multiple, but not all?

if you check always one selected, only one value can be selected at a time, thus making select all unusable

if the user can select more than one but not all, maybe something where you count the selected items from the object compared to the total number of items

Unfortunately, we have to allow for multiple selections.

During are testing of 11.2 we found that end user could select (select all)

by mistake and in some cases this created a significant performance hit on

the system.

Of course, we are upgrading and trying not to change the end user

experience if it is not necessary.

Note, this menu item could be turned off in 8.5.

Seeing that we using the Ajax client is there any java script that can be

used to turn off the menu item?

Thanks
