Hi Lars,

It seems to work in Mozilla, but not in Chrome, so I'll go back to that browser again.

Also thanks for explaining the use of dataelement group sets.  We are clearly not using them that way... and should probably work out the naming conventions if we wanted to.  Seems like a good idea.

Thanks,

Randy

I think I may have seen something related to this before but can't seem to get it to work.  When I want to select all of the districts from the orgunit hierarchy for a pivot table, I can select any that are visible, but the remaining districts in Western province are not visible (off the screen).  I cannot scroll below Muhanga District.  I have tried zooming out the page, but nothing seems to work.  Has this been fixed in a newer release of 2.12?

I have actually seen this a few times on Windows - never on Mac or Linux. I suspect it is a bug with the javascript library we using (Ext JS) but we will try to look into it more closely and see what we can do.


While I'm at it, why do the data element group sets appear in the list of dimensions in the pivot table dialog?  It makes sense to have orgunit group sets like "admin unit type", "ownership", but the "Malaria_all" data element group set and the "thematic area" data element group set?  I can't see any use case for making them dimensions in the pivot table.

As you know, categories, org unit group sets and data element group sets can be used as dynamic data dimensions in DHIS. For the categories you can select explicitly which ones should appear as data dimensions (in pivot, visualizer etc). We figured that most group sets would make sense as data dimensions - but that assumption might be wrong and we could easily add an option for picking which group sets should appear as dimensions. Let us know.

I am not sure how your "Malaria all" group set is defined, but ideally a group set should be suitable as data dimension - for instance it could give you the totals of groups of malaria-related data elements.

regards,

Lars
