Expression Labels disappear on AccessPoint sometimes but not other times

Fri, 05 Mar 2010 23:42:36 GMT

I've noticed that I have Expression Labels ocassionally going blank in a straight table that I've published to the AccessPoint (QV developer 8.5 and QV server 8.5). I redistribute the document and other labels are missing. I distribute the same document to a different server (w/ identical hardware/software) and never see these missing expression labels.

Is this a bug or am I missing something?

Original version on server 1 (how it should look):

How it looks sometimes when I distribute it (server 2):

Another time I distribute it (server 2):

I would assume this relates to this issue: http://community.qlik.com/forums/t/25631.aspx which is a bug in QV9 and just recently got corrected. Not 100% sure about QV8.5 though.

Thanks for the link Lukas. I searched 7 pages of forums for a related post but gave up too soon.

I don't know if this has been resolved with some kind of patch in 8.5 or not, but I always get a little nervous about using patches...

I may take the easy route and use a text object on top of the expression labels (with the labels) and try to make it look like it is all one chart. The only problem would be if users try to export the chart. Hey, no labels.
