What is the CalcDim function ?

[b_garside]

Has anyone used or know of the CalcDim function? 

I discovered it using Qlik's intellisense when typing.  It does not show in any online Qlik help guides that I could find.

It doesn't seem to be well documented, but it is discussed and explained in this post: https://community.qlik.com/t5/Design/Calculated-Fields/ba-p/1694383

Thanks to Henric, he provides great explanations for obscure functions. To bad he was forced to retire! Big mistake by QLIK.
