If you select a container and copy it. Only the container is copied but not the objects inside it. Is there any way to overcome it?
Thanks in advance!

I usually remove the objects first, copy everything, and then put the objects back in the copied container.
My experience says that when you copy a container all object inside are copyed too but ... they have the same id of the original container so any change in the object in the second container will be applyed to the first container.
So:
Copy the container, remove all the object inside, change id of the objects finally compose again the container.
Let me know

Ashfaq,
I use 11.2 sr5. If you have a copy of the object outside the container and copy the cotainer it works. But if you don't have this copy it does not. Could you confirm me that in 11.2 sr8 you copy container contens whitout have a exteranl copy of the objcets ?

Hi,
I confirm its works
have a look at attached application.
May be you need to upgrage to latest version.
I sugges you to try this in some test machine by installing only qlikview desktop.

ASHFAQ,
You are right. In the release notes of the version r8 this bug appears as corrected.
“44226 Plugin - Copying object from within a container object does not work”
I will to update my desktop installation.
I use massively container to distribute object when a design QV sheets. For this reason this issue was a saving time for me.
Thanks a lot!.
