Nested Containers in Qlik Sense

I am converting a QlikView app to Qlik Sense.

The QlikView app has nested containers.

Can I do the same in Qlik Sense?

Do you have an example of this?  I am told by the consultants that this is not possible.

The consultants are right.  You cannot do nested containers. 

 

The only way possible to do this is to download the "ShowHide Container" extension. 

Some companies like mine have a policy of not allowing extensions to be installed.  If you belong to such company, then you are SOL.

You can do container in a container with the VIZLIB CONTAINER (third party extension, $$$), but I do not see any way to do this in a native qlik container.

How is it that there are topics like this that are as old as 2 years and Qlik still haven't developed this?

Nesting containers was available in QlikView and was really useful because you could categorise filters and use show/hide variables. It meant you could have all of the same filters but with less real estate and easier to find for the users.
