NPrinting PixelPerfect column name does not include labels
Article Number: 000090048 | Last Modified: 2019/12/05Description
If the same table is imported in an Excel report and in a PixelPerfect report it is possible to notice that the name given to columns is different.
Excel always shows the label.
On Pixel perfect reports the name can be confusing, especially when working with Master items: sometimes NPrinting shows the ID of the column in Sense, sometimes the formula, but never the label.
Environment
- NPrinting all releases
Cause
The name of the columns are the same in Pixel Perfect and Excel, the difference is that Excel shows also the label.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to show the description in Pixel Perfect. It depends on a structural limitation in PixelPerfect. Tables are treated as different objects in Excel and in PixelPerfect. In PixelPerfect, the column label is a property that is not possible to import. So what you see in the of the field as it is saved by Qlik Sense.
Resolution
This is an internal limitation due to structure of PixelPerfect. Currently, there is not a workaround.
A feature request has been open to remove the limitation.
