TRUECHART4QLIKSENSE

What is Qlik Sense?

Qlik helps people find deeper insights by harnessing human intuition and machine intelligence during the analytics process. The Associative engine lets you explore all your data, in any direction, leaving no data behind and no path uncovered. And you can do everything from any device, without limitations.

TRUECHART4QLIKSENSE


TRUECHART is a scalable, enterprise-class solution that integrates with, and extends the functionality of Qlik Sense in the context of responsive advanced chart creation, IBCS, Report, and Annotation & Commenting.

Please look for general information in the TRUECHART Platform introduction.

Qlik Sense Enhancement Pack

In addition to the cross-platform benefits, TRUECHART also extends the Qlik Sense platform specifically with powerful MENUBAR navigation, dynamic table functionality and comprehensive screen layout optimization tools. Easily create “mashup”-like views and layouts from within the native Qlik Sense environment. In addition to supporting NPrinting, TRUECHART also fully integrates with Mail & Deploy’s advanced printing solution for Qlik Sense to provide functionality for multipage tables (e.g. PDF, Word, etc.) and data exports (Excel), including formatted comments and selective export of defined layout cells.

Qlik Sense Support

TRUECHART is suitable for the Qlik Sense version 3.0 and higher. The latest version of Qlik Sense has been intensively tested and is supported explicitly from TRUECHART version 2018.11.0 onwards.

Information about all supported versions (including older versions) can be found here.

Export

The standard export (image, pdf, pptx) of TRUECHART by Qlik Sense is fully supported.

Info

Depending on the number and complexity of the objects to be exported (data and layout), exports with Qlik Sense (Objects, Sheets and/or Data Stories) can have long runtimes.

Warning

For larger data stories (6 or more sheets to be exported), the amount of data can even lead to export crashes. This problem has been reported to Qlik and will be investigated in cooperation and promptly resolved. As a workaround, multi-page reports can be used with the help of export solutions such as NPrinting or Mail & Deploy.

In the current Qlik Sense February 2020 release, semi-transparent backgrounds are not displayed correctly in an exported Story.


A workaround for this problem is to set the export rendering engine back to the old version. This can be done in the engine.exe.config file. This file is found normally under the following path: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Qlik\Sense\PrintingService

You have to enable the following line and change the value to cefsharp:

<add key="webrenderer-type" value="cefsharp" /> 

Qlik Sense Mobile

Qlik Sense Mobile is supported by TRUECHART. TRUECHART supports the online and offline mode of the Qlik Sense Mobile App. Since downloaded offline apps within Qlik Sense Mobile are read-only, TRUECHART commenting functionalities not available in this offline mode.

To see latest comments in your offline app, you must use the button action Save comments in App to copy comments from TRUECHART Service into the qfv file.

Printing & Export Support

TRUECHART fully supports image and text export, especially for comments, with external partner solution Mail&Deploy.
