OBIEE 11G Hidden Sections Taking Up Space and Skewing Dashboard Alignment

Hi OBIEE Experts,
I'm hoping someone can help me out with this. I am using a dashboard prompt to hide sections within an OBIEE Dashboard. Everything is working and functioning as I wanted, except for the Dashboard/Section alignment. The sections and their content are hiding depending upon the result of the Dashboard Prompt, but even though they are hiding they are taking up space on the Dashboard. In my Dashboard I have this basic layout:
_____________________COLUMN 1_____________________
_______COLUMN 2_______ _______COLUMN 3_______
COLUMN 2 contains my Dashboard Prompt that hides/unhides the sections in COLUMN 3. COLUMN 3 has 9 different sections in it, with only one section showing at a time based on the Dashboard Prompt. The Section Headers are set to show for each of these 9 sections.
The problem is coming in that if a user selects the Prompt value that activates the section highest in the Dashboard Layout (Section position 1 in COLUMN 3), the dashboard aligns correctly. The Section Header for the Dashboard Prompt Section in COLUMN 2 is perfectly aligned with the shown section in COLUMN 3. However, if a user selects a prompt value that triggers any section other than the highest to be shown, the alignment gets off. It is especially bad and noticeable when you get to the lowest section in COLUMN 3.
I have attached screen shots (data blacked out) that demonstrate this problem.
- http://kathrynlwatson.com/Dashboard%20Layout.png Shows the Dashboard Layout
- http://kathrynlwatson.com/Selected%20Subject%20Area%20-%20Topographies.png Shows the Dashboard and Alignment when the Top Section in the Layout for COLUMN 3 is shown. This alignment is correct.
- http://kathrynlwatson.com/Selected%20Subject%20Area%20-%20Patient%20Demographics.png Shows the Dashboard and Alignment when the Bottom Section in the Layout for COLUMN 3 is shown. This alignment is incorrect.
Does anyone have any tips for how to correct for this? I have set the format in all sections to have 0 padding all around. I have also tried putting each section in different columns, but that encounters the same problem, with the alignment being affected horizontally rather than vertically. Any help will be very much appreciated!

Well try using percent for all sizing for all columns like (50% width, 30% height..etc). You need to play around to get the closest match. Also, try using blank sections for extra padding with fixed %sizes

    Assuming you are using iTunes 11.1:
    Connect your iPhone to your computer.
    In iTunes towards the upper right of your screen you will see the name of your iPhone. Click on it (not the eject symbol.
    This will open a series of windows with tabs.
    Select the tab for photos.
    Untick the ones you do not want on your iPhone and at the bottom right click on Apply.
    They will be removed.

  • Does anyone know what causes the "other" section to appear taking up space and what I can do to get rid of it...?

    For some reason everytime I add things to my phone this "other" section grows just a little more. I am not sure entirely what I might be able to do to delete this and if I may be able to keeo it away in the future. I thought restoring my phone would do it but this only reduced it I still have space taken up by it. If anyone has any solutions for me please help...

    There will always be a certain amount of "Other". Amounts to .8gB could be considered normal.

  • Yellow 'Other Storage' Taking up space and won't go away

    My son seems to be doing something that makes his iPad and iPhone fill up with 'Other' storage.
    over 3/4 the space is now 'other'.
    Looking at the 'Usage' section, there are none of the usual suspects using space (Mail, iMessage, Documents).   In fact, Video and others all say they are zero.  If you manually add up the apps that it lists, I'm using 6.53GB total, yet on a 32GB iPad I only have 9GB free.
    I'm tired of playing the restore game now that iOS 7 makes you turn off find my ipad and all that crap every time you try to restore it.   Plus it doesn't fix it, it just deletes whatever that stuff is and whatever is happening is making it come right back after a bit.
    The other thing is he isn't a heavy user, he mostly watches iTunes library of TV shows.   It's like the Video app is caching something, or putting it somewhere but then saying 'I don't have it' and filling up the iPad.
    Any ideas?  this is getting really old.   We've got 5 iPads in the house and his is the only one doing this, but he's the only one who constantly watches purchased videos on it.
    "restore it" isn't an idea, because it comes right back.   I'm tired of that game.

    It normally builds up slowly.
    Try reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.

  • What is the "other" that's taking up space and how to compress it...

    It seems that since uploading to itunes 8.0, i've noticed that i have 13.60 GB of "other" showing up on my iPod--not giving me much free space.
    I recently used my iPod to transfer my library--is this the issue? How do free up that space--on my iPod?
    Thanks!

    *i've noticed that i have 13.60 GB of "other" showing up on my iPod-*
    Other can be Album Artwork, Notes, Contacts, Firmware etc. or (and this doesn't apply to the iPod Touch or iPhone which don't have the option to enabled for disk use), files that are on there if you are using the iPod as a removable storage device. If you feel that Other is being incorrectly reported then try restoring your iPod. Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes
    *I recently used my iPod to transfer my library--is this the issue? How do free up that space--on my iPod?*
    Open your iPod in Windows Explorer and make sure you deleted all of the files you were transferring.

  • How can i remove videos and music that are not on my ipad mini but are still taking up space and are showing that they are there even after i've deleted them?

    how can i remove videos and music that have been deleted from the ipad but are still showing in settings as still being on the ipad?

    I believe that I have the same issue with iPad Mini with Retina Display, iOS 8.1. No matter which way I delete videos from my iPad, they will still show as "deleted", yet the space is not cleared up. I tried restore and then a full restore (clean setup as a new iPad) and it still does this to me. I can solve it by doing a restore each and every time I download a video and delete it. Rather frustrating. Has been a problem since day 1 of iOS 8. I'm yet to try the power+home button reset. It may very well work, but I am surprised that a "fresh setup" of an iPad didn't resolve it from ever occurring.

  • OBIEE 11g:  Inconsistencies with Master-Detail events and Navigate to BI

    Hi everyone,
    I'm getting some pretty annoying inconsistencies with the Navigate to BI Content action as well as the Master-Detail events. Basically the main issue I get is that 90% of the time, the click does nothing.
    It's a pretty simple setup, I am setting up bulb gauges to act like a fancy column selector. The bulb gauges are setup to pivot based on a Metric Type column. The goal is that if you click on "Metric 1" bulb a trend report should refresh to show Metric 1. If you click on the "Metric 2" bulb, the same trend report will show that metric.
    Here's how I implemented it:
    Dashboard Tab A -- Uses Navigate to BI Content
    1) I have a prompt on Fiscal month in dashboard tab A.
    2) I created the bulb gauge and put it in dashboard tab A
    3) Setup the interaction on the bulb measure to navigate back to Dashboard Tab A.
    3) Prompted the trend on Metric Type column and put it in dashboard tab A.
    4) In theory, clicking on the bulb, should navigate back to the same tab and update the trend report appropriately
    5) In reality, nothing happens.
    6) The only way I can get the navigate to work is if I first change the value in the fiscal month prompt and click Go. Then I click on the bulb and the navigation will work ONCE. After that it's broken again.
    Dashboard Tab B -- Use Master Detail -Events
    1) Pretty much same situation as dashboard A, but instead of navigate to BI Content, I use the master-detail events.
    2) Pretty much the same results. I cannot get it to consistently work, in fact the trick with the filter didn't do anything.
    3) One thing I tried was cleared my browser history completely (Mozilla Firefox) and then launched the page. It work for about 5 clicks and then stopped.
    Either way, neither of these are working properly for me.
    Has anyone else had these issues?
    -=Joe
    Has anyone else had an issue with this?

    So someone explained to me that master-detail events only occur within a single report. They cannot be used to communicate across two different reports.
    That is significantly less useful than I originally thought. I honestly that it was a method of communication for one report to update other target reports that are all listening on the same channel. That would have been a powerful feature. A single report refreshing other views in the same report is still useful, but not as much.
    That being said, I still don't understand what the heck is going on with the navigate to BI content feature. I've been testing it out. It works with pivot tables and regular tables. But the moment I add a graph, gauge or even a "Filter" view into the dashboard page, the click stops working. Really really strange stuff.

  • Obiee 11g Executing a Direct Database Request in my Dashboard

    Hi Experts,
    i want to create in my dashboard Button:
    when i presses Button message will appear with question with 2 buttons :
                  1 Ok        : will execute Direct Database procedure.
                  2 Cancel : return to source dashboard.
    what is the way to execute ?
    I would appreciate your help.
    sin

    Analyses based on direct database requests and sent out through agents work just like any other analysis in terms of content, delivery etc.
    Are you sure that you're not hitting a privilege problem and that the user executing the agents isn't allowed to run direct database requests?

  • I have an iPhone 4 8gb and I have about 6gb other that is taking up space but I dont know what it is. What do I do?

    I only have 300 pictures and 2 videos, only 50 songs, I always clear my data and cookies, and history on safari, and I always delete my texting and imessaging conversations, and I clear my calling history. I also redownloaded all my apps BUT I still have 6GB "other" that is taking up space and I don't know what it is and what to do to get more memory space since I only have an 8GB phone. Also I updated my phone to, I think verison iOS 6.0.1, about 4 or 5 months ago, and I think that's when I started getting so much of my memory taking up by "other". There is another software update iOS 6.1.3 but if I were to update would that take even more room? Or is that the solution? Because I can't really do much on ly phone because I don't have enough memory space. Please help me get more memory space on my phone. And hopefully someone knows what went wrong, what's taking up 6GB of memory space, and how to fix it. Help me! Thnx

  • OBIEE 11g - Fusion Middle ware control and BI Publisher not launching

    Hello
    I have successfully installed OBIEE11G but the installation has not been stable. Sometimes I find all three components 1) web logic 2) fusion middle ware control and 3) bi publisher
    whereas most of time, only weblogic console is coming up.

    Hi,
    After complete installation of obiee 11g
    step 1 :- start the listener and services manually
    step 2 :- Start BI services from all programs/Business intelligence/start bi services.This enables you to start OPMN,Node manager,BI server,Presentation server,BI Publisher server
    This is the method i do follow for starting up.If you want to individually start and stop the services go to FM EM console and BI foundation in that capacity management in that screen you can start or stop.The URL's mentioned are correct with their default port numbers.
    Hope helps you.
    Cheers,
    KK

  • Not able to import the data in OBIEE 11g

    Hi Gurus,
    I had just build a new development instance from scratch.
    Q1) I am getting database connnection error on the Dashboard and when i tried to update row count from physical layer it also throws me an error, as i test i tried to import but i also got an error " The connection has failed", i am able to connect thru SQL Developer.

    In BI EE 10g, there was no Oracle Client bundled along with BI EE. So, BI EE will use your Oracle DB Home client to connect to the database. So, when you try to connect to the database through the Repository or BI Server, it will try to find the tnsnames entry in the Oracle Client of BI EE 11g instead of your database. There are 2 options to work around this
    Copy your tnsnames.ora and Paste it to
    1. Drive:Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_BI1}network\admin
    2 Drive:Oracle\Middleware\oracle_common\network\admin
    TNS File like,
    DBName =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Your Server IP)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = DBName)
