Re: Bedrock And Github vs Other Options
I just wanted to say that I have been using bedrock TI (up to v4) professionally as a TM1 consultant/developer for at least 10 years in a large number of organisations, in big production environments and cannot think of a single instance of any of the processes malfunctioning. Every time I thought ...

Re: MDX which takes Value from Cube
Was thinking the same thing.
Did someone ask for me?

Re: Check current user selection in UI
The only way would be to add an element to your column dimension (perhaps named “Selected”), then if a user inputs a value or picks a value in a picklist, you can programmatically identify which elements have been selected.

Re: IBM PAFE Add-ins Issue - Classic add-in reappears, New add-in fails to appear
Ran into another issue today that isn't 100% related to Classic add-in (so adjusted thread title) but thought this was the best place to document it as the symptoms are the same. For me this happened during a dirty Excel crash. Symptoms are: No references to IBM PAFE in the Excel Add-ins window. IBM...

Re: Quickly promote or copy a PAW book
Nice little use case: When creating an action button in PAW and you link it to a process, when setting parameter picklist, you cannot specify control dimension, e.g. }Clients. So pick some other dimension, then do Ctrl + Q + / and you can find/replace all references of the dummy dimension with the i...

Re: Cases where MDX is a better alternative to cube rules
I had a case where users need to track a measure as a percentage of Sales Revenue. Adding a rule to do this across any number of scenarios, periods, SKUs, Customers etc. etc. would have added huge calculation overhead. Rarely do we disagree, but here I am on the same page as Steve. For us this woul...

Re: PAW Books - Default Books as landing page for different users
Hello, One possible work around is to send everyone to the same book, which has general information, announcements, and also a button that says "click here to begin". The button doesn't actually do anything, rather the magic is a 0% visibility overlay of a websheet which has a single cell,...

Re: Disabling Consolidation Levels
I do not want to show any values at consolidated element "Measures", because it would be misleading since children of this Element are just different measures (some are percenteges, some not etc.) Elaborating on what Wim rightly suggested, a good rule of thumb is to set the weights to zer...

Re: Is this a Useful PAX tip?
Recommend running a fiddler trace to get the specifics, but yes when you move in PAFE QR grid from cell to cell there’s some jitter.

Re: Quickly promote or copy a PAW book
This is a good one, not sure why this is hidden away. Might be a good IBM PA AMA question for next time.
I’ve also used this for pixel perfect column width across sheets, which can be important for some users.
