Hello,





I am having a very frustrating time with Q&A setup.  I love both the feature and the options being provided.  We have a large data model with a lot of long, descriptive names and this breaks the Field Synonyms section (which is key for us due to the size of the model).





Please add a horizontal scroll bar (or the ability to resize the window) because there currently is not way for us to select/deselect some attributes.  I can't add an image here because upload from computer is not allowed in this forum.  Here is a link to where I posted this originally, which has the screenshot: The post





In the meantime, does anyone have a work-around?  I've been trying to play with windows settings (and I even downloaded a window resizer tool off the internet) and so far nothing has worked.





Thanks!

This is still open, and is a bug in my opinion. Here is that thread:

The only workaround to this issue is to make/modify the entire perspective if you want to enable/disable a specific measure from Q&A. This obviously is unrealistically time consuming and either restricts the ability to use Q&A or leads to tens of perspectives, one for each needed Q&A difference.
