Get document parameter in variable ?

Deal All

I was wondering if it's possible (in a simple and easy to implement way) to display some document parameter directly in the Qlik application ?

For example, display the compression level of the qvw, if the "Initial reduction based on data access" is checked or not and some other parameter

My goal is to check a selection of document parameter on several application (around 100 or 200 qvw)

Didn't manage to find a way to do it yet but I guess it should be possible reading the xml document in -prj folder (but I would like to avoid create these folder for each application)

a text object reading some variable should be better for me as I intend to re-use it later

Thanks in advance for your help

You could read some meta-data from the qvw directly (try to load a qvw per wizard and chose xml as file-format). Another way (with a lot more meta-data) is to export the document-layout (option by menu --> file) and to read those xml-output. Also the use of macros to automate the document-layout export or a variety of settings might be helpful:

QV_APIguide_v11_MODIFIED.qvw
