Clear last viewed state

Anonymous — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

Hello,

Is it possible to change this behavior. QV Server seems to "remember" the last viewed state. So when I

re-open the app, it puts me back to the last known state. Is there a way to disable this and set a default state

to always open the first tab/sheet of the app?

Thanks

One way is to have a trigger on open like below screen shot:

I forgot to mention in my original post that I do have a trigger -> OnOpen to activate my first sheet.

But when I re-opened the app, it put in sheet2 because that was the last sheet I was in just right before

I closed the browser. Is there something else I need to handle?

I didn't see a solution in the link you provided in above. In addition, some of the threads talked about

making configuration changes on the QV server which is not what I want. Thanks for sharing the link.

Looking at my code again, I actually have the following:

1. Settings -> Document Properties -> OnOpen -> Activate Sheet (sheet1)

2. On "Sheet1", I have Trigger -> Run Macro -> Clear All (in sub routine).

But it still doesn't produce the behavior I want.

We don't use Macros...

Instead of Macro, did you tried the way I mentioned above (Where Clear all as First step ) ?

Are you suggesting to do under Document Properties?

1. Clear All

2. Activate Sheet1

OK, I will post result tomorrow. It needs to be promoted to QV server.

The reported issue seems to be that Session Recovery is enabled on the QlikView Server. To confirm, open the QlikView Management Console (QMC) and navigate to System > Setup > QlikView Servers > QVS@ > Documents tab and check to see if the Enable Session Recovery checkbox is ticked. If it is, then Session recovery saves the current selection state for each user when a session ends. It then re-applies the selection state the next time that the same user reconnects to the same document. This is for every document on QlikView Server.

Best Regards
