Limitation to number of dimensions? #13

Closed anonymouselephant closed 7 years ago

anonymouselephant commented 7 years ago

Hi, I am new to your extension. Looks wonderful. I want to use it to export data into an excel-sheet. For that I want to use more than 10 dimensions, but after I added 10 dimensions the 'Add dimension'-button becomes grey and I am not able to add any more dimensions. To add measures is still possible. So my question is: Is there a Limitation to the number of dimensions you can use with this Extension?

I hope this is the right place to ask. Best regards and thanks in advance anonymouselephant

Okay, in the JavaScript File properties there is this code: var dimensions = { uses: "dimensions", min: 0, max: 10 }; I will probably just have to change max to a higher value

I updated this to a higher number and it didn't seem to add any more dimensions in the extension. Any ideas?

anonymouselephant commented 7 years ago

Well I changed max to 20 using notepad++ and then saved the JavaScriptFile. After that I had to reload/refresh the application pressing F5 and it worked. That's all I can say ;-)

Weird. I did the same thing and it didn't work! I am using Qlik Sense Enterprise so I removed the whole extension from the QMC and replaced it with the updated version and it didn't work. Thanks for the reply!

I only changed the Extension for the desktop-version. So it is probably just an Enterprise problem. If you can't fix it, maybe rethink if you really need more than 10 dimensions for your export. Usually you don't need that many dimensions but measures, especially if a primary key is a Dimension.

Closing as this is by design.
