Design Studio Crosstab freeze rows?

[former_member503635]

Hi DS friends,

I'm working on a project where the client would like to freeze the top Data Area row of a Crosstab, so that it is always visible while scrolling within the Crosstab itself. We're running Design Studio 1.6 SP4.

I had a look through the forums and consulted professor Google but could find nothing - do you know if this is possible?

Thanks,
David

Hi David,

Freezing data rows is rather untypical compared to headers. So the only workaround I can think of is using two crosstabs stacked on one another to create the impression as if the row you are looking for is frozen. Maybe that does the trick for you.

Kind regards

Martin

Hi Tammy,

Thanks for updating my tag - autocorrect error!

I hadn't thought to look at the spreadsheet component as the client has put a lot of effort into custom css for the crosstab component, which they're using heavily. Having just had a quick look at the spreadsheet, I don't see any option to freeze rows there either. Is it possible?

Thanks,
David

David - in searching for this, I found this blog by Karol - https://blogs.sap.com/2014/09/15/scrollable-panel-in-design-studio-to-show-bigger-content/ - is that a possibility for you?

I also found one more possibility - an extension - see this blog: https://blogs.sap.com/2016/05/13/advanced-visualizations-for-design-studio-using-visual-bi-extension...

You can check out possible extensions in the App Center - many offer free trials: https://www.sapappcenter.com/home

Hi David - I updated your tag as "ByDesign" is a different product

Not sure if it will work. Have you considered the spreadsheet component?
