Hi Everyone,

I am using Infoassist to create a report, when I click live preview, IA is disabling query pane and vice versa. Is there a way to solve this issue. Any input would be appreciated, Thank you in advance.

Regards
BI Dev

Live preview is so you can view what the report will look like at run time. You can limit the number of records from the drop down or to prevent any data access you can click on Use Sample data which will still display the preview but with dummy data. Some customers turn off live preview to prevent a bunch of unnecessary queries to the data base. The query view just allows you to see the fields to be reported against and any filters.


Thank you for using Focal Point!

Hi Chuck,

Usually, when I enable(click on) live preview I see both Query pane and live preview side by side. I am wondering if there is a way to resolve the above issue. Is it something you can configure for a particular user so that only one is available at a time if you are an admin?

HI BI Dev

Now I understand... Live preview can be disabled from the Administration console under InfoAssist properties but the Query Pane shows up no matter what. That would be a new feature request to disable that.


Thank you for using Focal Point!
