Hi,
How do I prevent a document from refreshing.
For example I have the qvw document open in Access Point and I have made various filter selections and zoomed the page to a specific size, when the Document is scheduled to run at a certain time and has now new data when I make another filter it will remove all the filter and resize the screen to its original format.
I know there are settings on the Document Properties under "Server" tab but not sure which one prevents this from happening as I tried numerous different refresh modes.
Any ideas?
Thanks
I would go with this one...
Client initiates refresh. If old data not kept in server or client too old, session will be disconnected. For the second setting, I would set it to this: Indicate with toolbar button.
The last thing is to go into the QVS Server settings and make sure that you can have more than one document in memory. This setting is in the Server Set up part of the QMC. The checkbox is likely checked to "Allow Only One Copy of Document in Memory". Uncheck that box. Now, with all this set, make sure to log out of Access Point, and then back in and test it out. It is possible that the last time you tried this, you missed this server setting.
What this will do, or rather should do, is allow you to work, and then if you want to refresh, click a button. Otherwise, i'm assuming it will refresh when you close the document in AP.
Good luck. Let me know if you have any more questions, and let me know how it goes.

Thanks Nate! Thats seems to work! What the downsides to having the ""Allow Only One Copy of Document in Memory" unticked?
There isn't a downside, as much as that setting is used to control memory consumption. The more documents inmemory, the more memory that is used.
Is this supposed to work with plain and regular AccessPoint? I've tried the steps outlined in this post, and while the document now seems to not auto refresh from server, I'm not getting any refresh button..?
I've tried the option for "Indicate with toolbar button" and also "Prompt with dialog", however I can see no refresh button at all when my document is open in AccessPoint (not to mention any buttons turning green), nor any dialogs even though I am 100% sure that the document has been refreshed.
We are using QlikView 11 SR2 with AccessPoint and Publisher, and IE9 with the AJAX client.
Is there some setting to allow refresh that needs to be toggled to show this button? I'm not seeing in at my clients install, and not in my local instance. However, the AccessPoint webhelp has a reference to a couple of Sheet object menu items (which mostly seem to correspond to the row of buttons at the top of the accesspoint document viewer), with two items that aren't showing here:
| Delete | Deletes the selected item. |
| Refresh | Refreshes the QlikView document. |
Any hints would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Henning
Have you tried this with the IE Plug-in? I know there is a difference between the Ajax client and IE Plug-in.
Yeah, I just tried that, and it does indeed work with the IE Plugin. With AJAX and WebView being the way forward and so on, I must say I'm a bit disappointed. It has so far been a requirement not to use IE Plugin at this project, and at the same time refresh our document every 10 minutes or so, but we might have to reevaluate this now.
With AJAX my experience has been that some times the document just refreshes anyway, or sometimes it's almost impossible to get it to refresh, and having to go to the AccessPoint main page and delete the document state.
Thanks for replying!
Hi Henning
Did you get an answer for this?
I have the same issue regarding letting the user control refresh in ajax client
