Usage & Installation

Both XY and 3D charts extensions are open-source and only require a license.

NOTE:

As Qlik Sense does not support WebGL rendering, the user will experience a significant drop in the charts’ performance compared to the performance levels of LightningChart JS. 

In order to get the highest possible performance, please use Qlik Cloud or a web browser.

To install, place folder with selected Extension to C:\Users<User Name>\Documents\Qlik\Sense\Extensions or in QlikCloud */qlikcloud.com/console/extensions/ -> ‘Add’ and upload extension.zip folder

To use the extension in QlikCloud go to ****/qlikcloud.com/explore/spaces/all and press ‘Add new’

Happy coding!
