Dear all
In Qlikview while developing applications the alignment and chart sizes are suppose done in 15 Inch monitor. Then after development is over suppose if we are viewing the same application in 17 inch or even bigger or less resolution monitor.. wat happens is , either the charts / layouts fits in to the monitor size or else it goes out of the monitor screen.. it differs from Monitor to Monitor... So Can any one tell me so that the alignment fits according to the screen resolution and based on the monitor size.
Is there any settings available in Qlikview to fit the application based on monitor........
Regards
Ashok Kumar
Hi Ashok,
Check ur system in Display Settings --> Resolution size Ex(1280 by 8oo pixels)
u just apply same resolution size in other system(17 inch monitor) .Then no need to allignment. for each graphs.

Hi,
you may search the forum for a macro, it was posted not so long ago. Alternatively you may create your applications on 1024*800 as standard and leave it to the users to increase/decrease the size.

We use a button in our application that can be turned on and off.When turned on all tabs are automatically fitted to the screen, when off all tabs are zoomed to 100%.
QlikView is like using Excel while everyone else is still using calculators.
Mark,
can you please explain briefly how you do that automatically.

First create variabele vAutozoomSwitch and a button that executes the following macro:
Sub AutozoomSwitch set vAutozoomSwitch = ActiveDocument.Variables("vAutozoomSwitch").GetContent If vAutozoomSwitch.String = "1" Then ActiveDocument.Variables("vAutozoomSwitch").SetContent "0", true for x = 0 to ActiveDocument.NoOfSheets - 1 ActiveDocument.GetApplication.WaitForIdle Set prop = ActiveDocument.Sheets(x).GetProperties prop.ZoomFactor = 1.0 ActiveDocument.Sheets(x).SetProperties prop next Else ActiveDocument.Variables("vAutozoomSwitch").SetContent "1", true End If End Sub
set vAutozoomSwitch = ActiveDocument.Variables("vAutozoomSwitch").GetContent If vAutozoomSwitch.String = "1" Then ActiveDocument.Variables("vAutozoomSwitch").SetContent "0", true for x = 0 to ActiveDocument.NoOfSheets - 1 ActiveDocument.GetApplication.WaitForIdle Set prop = ActiveDocument.Sheets(x).GetProperties prop.ZoomFactor = 1.0 ActiveDocument.Sheets(x).SetProperties prop next Else ActiveDocument.Variables("vAutozoomSwitch").SetContent "1", true End If
End Sub
Sub Autozoom set vAutozoomSwitch = ActiveDocument.Variables("vAutozoomSwitch").GetContent If vAutozoomSwitch.String = "1" Then ActiveDocument.GetApplication.WaitForIdle ActiveDocument.ActiveSheet.FitZoomToWindow End If End Sub
set vAutozoomSwitch = ActiveDocument.Variables("vAutozoomSwitch").GetContent If vAutozoomSwitch.String = "1" Then ActiveDocument.GetApplication.WaitForIdle ActiveDocument.ActiveSheet.FitZoomToWindow End If End Sub
Thanks, but I'm looking for an auto resize possibility for a reasonable use of the space of larger displays...
Some people prefer to use a macro to automatically fit the zoom to the window when the application is opened. Another option is what Mark suggests, with a button to do the same thing that the menu can do, though I’d personally suggest just training the users to use the zoom feature from the menu.
I’m not a fan of the zoom feature, though. My issue with it is that things can’t scale up consistently. Text that I intentionally emphasized (Arial 14, for instance) may no longer be emphasized, or perhaps everything will appear emphasized. Even worse, text may no longer fit exactly in the space allotted, causing scroll bars to appear, or even simply making things unreadable.
In our shop, we develop for the minimum size in common use – 1024 x 768. If people set their resolution smaller than that, they either need to scroll or View – Fit Zoom To Window. If people set their resolution higher than that, it won’t take the full screen, or they can again View – Fit Zoom to Window. But again, I don’t encourage people to zoom.
Instead, I sometimes try to put the “zoomable” charts or tables at the lower right, if possible. Then someone can grab the corner of the chart and expand it to fit the available space. My resolution is higher than the common size, so I use this quite often to see additional rows of data, and I feel it is a better use of the increased space than merely making everything larger.
None of that answers your question directly, but I thought I’d widen the discussion a bit, and perhaps give you some things to think about.
