Title: Increase Number of Items Shown in a Data Tree in Cognos Analytics (11.06)
Post by: GoKartMozart on 09 Aug 2018 02:33:49 AM
Hi

I need to increase the number items shown in a data tree. It is currently set to the default of 50 but was higher than this before the upgrade to C11.

I've followed the steps here http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21340397 which the comments suggest would work with Cognos 11 but I can't find the option. I'm clicking on the three dots that appear when hovering over package and the choosing 'Properties' and then 'Advanced'.

Could anyone point me to where I can change this setting? Or is it something that is currently only available in the legacy Cognos Connection viewer (which we don't have enabled at the moment).

Cheers

James

Hi,

Firstly, a caveat - I'm using 11.0.12 not 11.0.6. In my case, I can find the package in the portal, use the ellipsis (3 dots) and choose Properties, and on the General tab click on "Advanced" to expand it. I see an option at the bottom called "Package configuration" and I can use the Edit link beside it to edit the package configuration and choose the number of items to display in the data tree.
