2 What’s New in <strong>QlikView</strong> 11?<br />

The <strong>QlikView</strong> development team has again listened to the ideas and suggestions of users, customers and partners.<br />

As a result of our development and your comments, we are now ready to present <strong>QlikView</strong> 11 with several<br />

new features and improvements.<br />

We believe that there will be something for everyone to enjoy. Most of the new features are presented more<br />

in detail below.<br />

2.1 <strong>QlikView</strong> Desktop<br />

General Features<br />

Improved Hierarchy Loads<br />

The hierarchy loads have been redesigned. The hierarchy prefix executes in half the time compared to Qlik-<br />

View 10. Other changes include improved scalability with very large hierarchies. There has been no change<br />

to the syntax for hierarchy loads.<br />

Drop-Down Selection Tool for Tabs in the Load Script<br />

A drop-down selector for the script tabs has been added to the Script Editor toolbar. This provides users with<br />

an alternative to clicking on load script tabs to navigate through the tabs. For more information see Edit<br />

Script Dialog (page 173).<br />

OEM Island<br />

<strong>QlikView</strong> provides a new mechanism that can restrict <strong>QlikView</strong> documents, that are tagged with an application<br />

ID, from running on any other <strong>QlikView</strong> Server without a matching ID. This feature is reserved for<br />

use by OEM partners only.<br />

BNF Notation for Load Script Tool Tips<br />

The <strong>QlikView</strong> script editor now displays BNF notation (syntax) in the tool tips.<br />

Document Extensions<br />

Document Extensions are Extension Objects that contain no user interface. They can be used to customize<br />

the generated AJAX pages or used as sources of data for integration purposes. Although this feature was<br />

scheduled for this release, it is only available from a separate build (20747).<br />

Context Sensitive Help for the Script Editor<br />

Context sensitive help was broken in <strong>QlikView</strong> 10. It has been fixed for <strong>QlikView</strong> 11. The help text, however,<br />

has not been completely updated for <strong>QlikView</strong> 11 at this time.<br />

Alternate States<br />

<strong>QlikView</strong> allows users to detach charts from the underlying data model. When a chart is detached the object<br />

no longer responds to user selections. When the user re-attaches the object, it is instantly updated to reflect<br />

the current state of the selections. Alternate States are similar to this. The <strong>QlikView</strong> developer can create<br />

multiple states within a <strong>QlikView</strong> document and apply these states to specific objects within the document.<br />

The end-user can create copies of these objects (server objects) and then put those objects into different<br />

states. Alternate States are not accessible in the load script. They are a UI feature.<br />
