Re: Use webclient and desktop at the same time?
Hi Hannes, thanks to your query, I've raised an idea relating to your very good observation.
Re: GVA Introduction video
Thank you very much for that Jonathan. Independent views are so valuable when trying something brand new and to receive positive feedback only motivates me further.
Regarding the production, I had a very tight turnaround - a day - which included first learning how to use the opensource software - SHOTCUT. The still I used for the links is very poor and I had not even noticed until I had delivered the film, but I will pay closer attention to detail after your observation.
From a technical standpoint, whilst the film is very short and simple, getting to grips with the software, overcoming its nuances and handling random crashes added to the pressure, but I had to know that I could amend anything once delivered.
As it is now, I consider myself of intermediate ability with SHOTCUT and look forward to creating content that will help to communicate complex concepts in a relaxing and enjoyable manner and without the need for narration or a physical presence.
Re: Export Screen to PDF (Cloud environment and HTML5)
Thanks Björn Reuber. I was looking into how to develop procedures to support a reporting structure that would generate customised PDFs and Spreadsheets online. You've saved me a lot of time and work which would have been wasted.
Re: Bar Chart in HTML5 - Cannot click on bar due to hover window
Hi Daniel. I don't think there is a fix as this would require BOARD to address the pop-out location. However, if you 've got the room, you can zoom onto the bar or group of bars and then you will have room to do as you need - drill to another screen in your case.
Re: Where can I get good icons, backgrounds or palettes?
Thank you @interested typ. That's a useful tip which I will be using from now on
Re: Where can I get good icons, backgrounds or palettes?
interested typ - do you copy the symbols or are you able to use the keyboard to enter the uni code? I have tried with the keyboard to insert an up arrow - [Alt] + 2191 - but get a capital A with a small circle on top [Å]. However, I will now be using unicode characters as presented by you and Bettina Clausen so thank you both for the idea - really great solution.
Re: Defaults for inserting new rows?
Bob Gill , did the solution using ATOs from interested typ work for you? To control the members that users see, you can use a SELECT cube and 'hide' those members not wanted. I've just created a video on it called 'Sort and Select'. It should be released either today or tomorrow but in essence:
1. Create a single entity cube,
2. Create a dataview and add the cube
3. Select data entry on
4. Change output to check boxes
5. Add and hide cube to target object
6. Place cube in Filter a of target object and make > 0.5
7. Select the cheekbones of members to show
8. Save data entry
9. Target object will only show checked members.
Re: How to know which Datareader populates and Infocube
As a point of interest, I have been informed that a metadata lookup ability, similar to the tool created by Jan Kaufmann, will be available in BOARD 11. I have no idea how it will operate but I understand that an active search will be a main feature to enable searches to answer questions like the one posed by Obil Vasquez
Re: ZOMBIE SCREEN - cannot access, edit or delete corrupted screen
Thanks Jonathan Baetens,
Maybe through the Community portal we can highlight these issues to BOARD Intl who may then seek resolutions to them. I'm sure they're aware and so it would be a case of prioritisation.
See you at BOARDville - look forward to catching up.
Re: ZOMBIE SCREEN - cannot access, edit or delete corrupted screen
Thanks Daniele Di Lorenzo, It helpful to know how others have dealt with this issue. I've also raised a ticket on this and if I get anything from it, I'll update you.
