Drill from Action Button?

Post by GPC »

Hi All

We have a drill process from a TM1 Websheet, which works fine. We want to initiate the drill from an Action Button rather than having to right-cllick. We've tried to configure an Action Button to do this.
It works, in that it runs the drill process, but it does not take us into the cube viewer as the regular drill does. Is it possible to make a drill work from an Action Button?

Thanks,

Gregory

Hi Greg,

This would be a great enhancement request (hint).

Unfortunately you can only return the view handle to a drill from the right-click menu. If the UI is excel rather then TM1 Web then you do have the option of a macro button rather than action button to invoke the cell menu behind the scenes, find the drill option and show the drill pop-up.
