how to maximzie the main QV app window via macro

h ithere

i have writen a macro to "fitzoomwotwindow" when the document is opend.

my problem is that the QV allways seem to open in a a window that is not maximized to the full

hance my macro does its job alas the size it fits is the size of the reduced window.

i have lookd for an api method to maximize but there wasnt any.

i tried usingthe "resize windos to document" setting in the user prefernces but it didnt help?

Hello,

If you are using QlikVIew Desktop (not opening the document on the server with ajax or plugin) it's not a QlikView issue rather than a Windows issue.

Check this post and see if that helps.

The document is not on a server. I am busy building a document and i wish t set a macro so that whenever a sheet is activated, it automatically zooms in to fit the window size. now I have set a Macro on the OnActiveSheet. I set the Macro name as FitZoomToWindow, but nothing happens

Hi,

Ok, I was wrong then. Try with this macro

sub zoomsheet ActiveDocument.GetApplication.WaitForIdle ActiveDocument.ActiveSheet.FitZoomToWindowend sub


Set this On Active Sheet.

Hope that helps.

Hi,

Its still not working. I went to edit Module and pasted what you suggested and it never did anything. Any other ideas?

Funny, it works for me... Have you set in Sheet properties a Trigger OnActivateSheet to Run Macro "sheetzoom" ?

Yes i have. its very strange because in all my other QV files they work excepting for this one.

Anyone else have any ideas on this maybe?
