I want to emphasize that many of the tips are invented by others than me, I tried to credit the original author at all places when possible. Many of the tips have been published before on the Qlik Community, the app below can be viewed as my current top picks.

Amazing!! Already knew some of those tricks. Most of the clients I worked doesn't allow to change any of default configuration like using other themes, so I put those css codes on a multi-kpi with hidden measures and labels and it works.

in chord diagram, you need to use this formula for category points, otherwise links between point not match points.

@PolBe If you’re still having issues importing the QVF via the QMC… a workaround is to first create a “placeholder” app in your hub, then upload the QVF and select the option to replace an existing app (choosing the placeholder app you just created). 

Hope this helps!
