The problem happens when trying to pivot against many rows. Our team tried providing 20 dataset columns into the ROWS box and 1 column in the COLUMNS box and provided a few measure in the VALUES box under classic pivot chart.
After applying the pivot configuration, there are 2 sections displayed.
When trying to expand the left section until around 6 or 7 columns, the left section starts to occupy the entire screen. The right section is no longer viewable, and it is not scrollable.
Is this a flexmonster limitation on number of pivot columns and is there any solution to view large pivot table?
Hello, Jun Jie,
Thank you for reaching out to us.
This behavior is caused by the autoSwitchToCompact: false option in your report configuration. The classic form is designed with a frozen area for row members and a scrollable area for values, so you can always see which members you are analyzing. When many row fields are expanded, the frozen area grows with them, since each hierarchy level is shown in a separate column. By default, Flexmonster prevents it from taking up the full width by automatically switching to the compact form. With autoSwitchToCompact set to false, this switch is disabled, so the frozen area can occupy all available space, leaving no room for the values.
To resolve this or minimize the effects, you can choose one of the following approaches:
autoSwitchToCompact: false from options.grid (or set it to true). Flexmonster will then switch to the compact form when the classic layout no longer fits.tableSizes object.Please let us know if one of these approaches works for you.
Best regards,
Maksym
