Re: PAfE API to open a set editor

Double clicking a SUBNM cell to open set editor works in Pafe except when you have an "&" in the subset name. The dropdown selection feature of SUBNM cells also doesn't work when you have an "&" in the subset name.

Re: Rule On consolidation which matches the natural consolidation

If I had to guess, 'Parent' used to be a leaf element and someone used that rule to make it the sum of the 3 other elements. Someone else came along later (or same person got a tiny bit wiser) and decided to make 'Parent' a real consolidation with the 3 as children and then forgot to remove the orig...

I see things that upset me in both your original and the modified snippets, but if I had to pick which one I'd rather read, I'd pick the modified.

Re: Ultimate Long TM1 quiz

I doubt I have the technicalities right, but I've always explained it as the calc cache being invalidated from the CellPut and thus forcing the source view to be re-evaluated/recalculated when you try to read from and write to the same cube in a TI. I believe it's also particularly sensitive to MDX ...

Re: DefineCalc on which version and apps available?

Keep the report structured just as you have it, but try removing the TM1RptTitle for that specific dim from the TM1RptView definition. You don't need to specify all of the title dims in the report definition, just treat it as if you're defining it in the columns but keep it up in the title elements.

Re: Migrate Application folder structure to PAW or Excel?

It would be great if I could get it to pause on the two Excel-based processes... I'm guessing the tm1 authentication piece is preventing you from calling the excel-based processes via a vbs script and running unattended? If not, you could call the vbs from a TI and simply make that part of the exec...

Yes, parameter 278 in the sub file will have a 1 which dictates that the subset, despite being static, will be populated with all elements in that dimension anytime it is referenced or opened. As such, there also will be no element count parameter 270 in the .sub file or the list of static elements ...

It is clever but is that really optimised? I'll defer to Elessar's judgement on whether or not my suggestion was the optimization they were looking for, but I do believe Max/Min functions can be quite a bit faster than IF statement processing.

Re: Republishing a private View with private subsets using PublishView

If you make the user and ADMIN of the dim in question with the private subset are they then able to Publish the view? I know a TI executes as Admin, but perhaps there's a safety catch in the PublishView function preventing a subset overwrite if the user doesn't ADMIN access to the dim. Let me check ...
