In reply to Grant Johnson. Hi Grant. I'm not aware of being able to do that. If it's an absolute requirement then I would look at creating the others bar yourself using a calculated dimension. You would need to use the Rank function to find out if a dimension was in the top n and then have that in an IF statement, with the results either being the original dimension value or a fixed string. You would need to ensure that the fixed value sorts before any dimension value. Good luck!

Thanks Steve, is there any way to move the Others series when using dimension limits to be the first value of the series in a graph/ chart?

Thank you a lot, Steve. Your series Back to Basic is simply fantastic. I have so far read this one about “Moving items…” and that about “Preceding load”. Both helped to improve a lot my experience with Qlikview.

In reply to volinna. Hi - that is the only way I know of to move parts of the chart around within the Chart Object. I'm not sure how you can prevent the right click button coming up on the Mac. Perhaps you could try a different virtualisation host, or RDP onto your Windows instance to see if things behave differently then?

Anyway to move it without the menu popping up? Every time I click “Shift” + “Ctrl” the right-click menu shows up and prevents me from moving anything.
The fact that QlikView doesn’t have a program for Macbooks is extremely infuriating.

Hi Omer, I’m afraid I don’t tend to use containers, so am not aware of how you would make this work. I’m surprised that what you try doesn’t do what you want. Probably one for Qlik Community…

Hey Steve,

My question will be about container object. Can you think of any way to restrict users to change grid border in the container object?

I tried to change Allow move/size property of the container and the objects inside it. But I couldn’t get it to work..

In reply to Mary Gzz. No problems. What is it you are trying to achieve on the bottom legend?
