How to disable user selections in Quiver charts? - palantir-foundry

I would like to know how to disable user selections in Quiver charts. I would like to prevent a user clicking for example on bar charts, i.e. disabling the functionality shown below.

It is not possible to disable the interactions and filter down of charts within quiver.

enable command button on form while in filterbyform mode

I'm trying to put a pair of command buttons onto a form to enable users to:
enter filter criteria, then
after they enter the criteria, apply the filter
The first is easy enough with "DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdFilterByForm"
The second would work with "DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdApplyFilterSort", except that I can't figure out how to activate my command button "cmdApplyFilter". The code "Me.cmdApplyFilter.Enabled = True" throws a runtime error.
I've looked at a lot of discussions, and it seems the only way to do this is by clicking on the ribbon or quick access toolbar. Does anyone know how to activate a command button on the form while in filter by form mode?
I'm pretty sure that what you're trying to achieve is not possible. The 'filter by form' view of the form looks to be a copy of your original form with only the input controls enabled to allow you to enter your filter criteria. If you think about it, it wouldn't make sense to allow full functionality. If you could activate buttons in this mode then you would theoretically be able to perform all sorts of actions that aren't appropriate in this context: add records, delete records, navigate through the records etc.
I suspect that the only way you will be able to get the functionality you want without using the ribbon bar buttons (what's wrong with the ribbon bar?) is to hand-roll your own filter form. Design a new form having controls to accept filter criteria and buttons to cancel or apply the filter. Sounds like a lot of hard work though to replicate functionality that's already built into Access out of the box.

Passing gesture events from pivot to child element

I understand this is almost always a no go, however I have an item on a pivot control that that I'd like to pass gestures to in Windows Phone 8.1.
I have a color-picker residing on one of the pivots and I'd like the user to still be able to touch, and slide the color picker item around to select their color.
I don't want to abandon this just yet, but I've tried disabling the IsHitTestVisible to false, but this obviously does not help as all child items are not reachable.
I've not found much else on this subject, specifically to disable the pivot's own gesture or pass it on to the color picker. I would change pages by the pivot headers.
Any suggestions on this? Is it any at all possible?
I think you have two options to achieve this
Lock the pivot when user interacting with the color picker. You can set PivotControl.IsLocked=true; property for this.
Show the color picker to a popup like screen on the top of the pivot control. You can change the visibility of the color picker grid based on some triggers

SSRS PopUp Message Box

Ive had a request from a client to make a popup box appear on the click of a databar within an SSRS report. Not had any luck with various Google Searches and just wanted to know if anybody has either got this work directly or has any suggestions for a workaround they have used?
Bit of background on the actual report itself, it simply contains a table with various stacked DataBars showing comparable data between multiple users in a system. The ability is needed to click a bar and see which User that bar relates to.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
It's not quite the same thing, but you can use the SSRS tooltips functionality to achieve something similar, i.e. a user will hover over a part of a chart and some contextual text information will be displayed.
Show ToolTips on a Series has some further information.
You can add an action to an object with a javascript popup which can show a specific URL or another report. In the action click on Fx to set an expression as follows:
I used a different script to popup a URL which contains an image url from the database:
="javascript:void(window.open('" + Fields!ImageURL.Value + "', null, 'width=800, height=500, status=no, toolbar=no, menubar=no, location=no'))"
( you can replace Fields!Image.Value with a url , this is the URL from a database field)
a
On a PC this will showup properly sized as a popup. On an iPad it will appear as a new tab.

Buttons for Filter Views

I'm trying to prepare a large contact sheet on the new Google Sheets.
I want to be able to quickly filter through the data (7-8 presets).
I was initially setting this up on Excel using Slicers, which did the job quite well.
The Filter Views work pretty well for what I want, but I want it to show in the form of buttons showing up on the spreadsheet. Is there a Macro I can write to do this? Is there an API open that can access switching on and off of filter views?
If yes, that will do the job perfectly. If not, Can I call filters and not filter views somehow? And hardcode the filter conditions into the macro buttons?
In Short : I want toggle buttons to turn on/off all Filter Views.
Please drop in your suggestions about other alternatives to do this
Although this is an old question, I thought I'd share my solution:
Create a filter view, and look at the browser address bar. You'll see the URL for the filter view eg:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vq6yK7m3HxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxQyv3ASdA/edit#gid=10999999999999948&fvid=2049999999922
Note the numbers after #gid and &fvid which refer to the google sheet and filter view ID respectively.
Go to a cell within the spreadsheet and enter the formula:
=hyperlink("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vq6yK7m3HxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxQyv3ASdA/edit#gid=10999999999999948&fvid=2049999999922", "Name of the filter view")
The cell will show the familiar blue underlined "Name of the filter view" and clicking on it will show the filter view.

Switching Chart types on the fly

I'm working on a reporting app which displays incoming data as pie by default. We'd like to offer the user the ability to switch to bar, or column, or area, or any of the other charts with the click of a button. Since we already have the data in the app, it should be fairly simple no? Does anyone have an idea of how I might approach this?

You can approach this a couple different ways. If it was me I would either set up a view stack with each of the chart types you want the user to switch to and they you can simply change the viewstack selectedIndex. Alternatively, you can have just a single chart holder container. Then just make function to dynamically generate each chart (Example). Then all you need to do is remove the existing and add the new chart.
I accomplish this by creating a state for each specific chart type. Then just change between states based on user input. You can use one data provider for each chart or create specific data providers for each.
